 Objectives
The aim of this CPD event is to equip designers with a basic knowledge of disciplines involved at the start of a project which are not often taught, but are of special value to the designer. Although it is basic in approach, it could serve as a refresher for those designers with higher formal training as well. The CPD will also give a better understanding of the surveyor and engineer’s disciplines on site.This CPD will address the basic principles of surveying sites, and understanding soil properties and dynamics underlying SANS 10400 Parts F, G and H as well as SANS 2001: CM2. It will also give a short overview of the beginnings of architecture in South Africa.
