Construction Management and Materials

Construction Management and Materials is a specialized field within civil engineering that focuses on the practical execution and physical components of construction projects. It encompasses the entire project lifecycle, including planning, scheduling, budgeting, and on-site supervision, to ensure projects are completed safely, on time, within budget, and to the required quality standards. A critical aspect of this discipline is the study, selection, and testing of construction materials—such as concrete, steel, asphalt, and timber—to guarantee their performance, durability, and sustainability in the final structure.
