Course Overview

Building surveyors are advisors to the property and construction industry, identifying defects and suggesting options for maintenance and repair. They work on the development of new buildings, as well as restoring properties across residential, commercial, industrial, and heritage projects.

In this course, you'll develop a thorough understanding of the architectural styles and influences that inform building surveying. You'll tackle subjects such as the history of buildings, building techniques, evaluation of building elements, and performance of building materials.

You'll learn to test and analyze all aspects of building performance and become an expert in advising on alternative uses of existing buildings, supervising remediation and refurbishment projects, as well as how to apply crucial health and safety regulations.
