Description:
In this course, we will take a tour of the 5 primary sectors of construction, and consider the different types of structures that are built in each sector. By taking a bird's eye view of built environment, we can see that the construction industry meets the needs and demands of a society and culture. Each sector of construction serves humanity in a different way by providing for the basic needs of a community.
