16 courses with the subject ECDM, each shown exactly as we captured it from the college's catalog, with every element we hold. Where the wording looks broken, that is our reading of the catalog, not the college's text.
ECDM 1220The Science of the Built Environment3
Introduce the properties and applications of common building materials used for foundations, framing and building systems to broadly understand the science of the built environment. A comprehensive introduction to the properties and applications of common building materials. It examines how these materials are utilized in foundations, framing, and building systems to create a safe, functional, and durable built environment. Students will gain a broad understanding of the science and engineering principles that govern building construction.
Investigate and apply electrical principles and theories utilizing electrical math, basic schematics, test equipment, circuit connections, and analysis techniques to identify and predict electrical circuit behaviors for a greater understanding of electricity.
