Title: Compute units of measurement common in areas of construction.
Course: Construction Technology (17002-18) > Section: Exploring Construction Processes

Computation may include units within the standard and metric systems for

- surveyors (e.g., distance, angles, elevation, area)
- architects/engineers (e.g., linear, scales, angles, ratios)
- contractors/plumbers (e.g., linear, area, volume)
- electricians (e.g., linear, voltage, amperage, watts)
- masons (e.g., linear, area, volume).

Process/Skill Questions:

- What two measurements are used to measure distance?
- What common scales are used in construction?
- What unit of measurement is used to indicate amperage?
