Unit 1: Construction Principles
Learners complete a written examination, demonstrating the skills needed to solve a variety of
practical construction problems by applying science knowledge and carrying out mathematical and
statistical techniques. Learners will apply mathematical principles and techniques to carry out
calculations that determine how materials behave under the action of forces or loads when used as
structural members, and draw conclusions regarding whether a material is fit for purpose

1. Demonstrate knowledge of construction terms, standards, concepts, methods and processes
2. Demonstrate understanding of construction standards, concepts, methods and processes in
context, in order to find solutions to real-life construction problems.
3. Analyse and evaluate information in order to recommend and justify the use of technologies
and methodologies to solve construction problems in context.
4. Make connections between information, technologies and methodologies to resolve
construction problems.

Roles in the construction and built environment industry require the application of knowledge and
understanding related to the design of structures and infrastructure, selection and use of
construction materials, and the provision of human comfort in buildings. Whether you want to
become a site manager, designer, engineer or surveyor, you will apply the knowledge and skills to
ensure that materials are fit for purpose and that specified quantities are ordered and used on a
construction project. In this unit, you will develop the skills needed to solve a variety of practical
construction problems by applying scientific knowledge and carrying out mathematical and statistical
techniques. You will learn about the science underpinning the manufacture, properties and
degradation of construction materials. You will apply mathematical principles and techniques to
carry out calculations that determine how materials behave under the action of forces or loads when
used as structural members, and draw conclusions regarding whether a material is fit for purpose.
You will understand scientific principles and apply them to heat loss, sound reduction and lighting
levels to provide human comfort during structure design, build and refurbishment. This unit gives a
foundation to help you progress to a wide range of construction-related higher education
qualifications, and will support you in a variety of construction roles such as technician, and Higher
Level Apprenticeships.
