MATERIALS SCIENCE & TESTING
This course
has been designed both as an introduction to Material Science
for students relatively new to the construction industry or

for mature students who are involved in the study of testing

The course includes an excellent textbook with the references
at the end of each chapter providing information for the development
of the ‘students information portfolio’ of either
