unit 1 health and safety we studied the regulations in construction for example fire safety what links to unit 2 science principles because they builders will decide a certain material is not very flammable so it will prevent fire spreading. unit 3 design principles is why a building is designed in a certain way links to unit 9 because the people who are involved with the design have to talk to one another like the architect and the civil engineer will speak to one another if the design needs to change because of the material they have to use                alex L

- In unit 1, It focuses on the involvement of health and safety in construction and I think that it links to unit 3, construction design principles. I think that they link as if the design is bad and not manufactured to a high enough then it wont be safe to live or work in.

- In unit 2, it focuses on construction science principles and I think that it links to unit 5, construction sustainability principles. I think that they link as both units are considered when choosing materials for different types

Units 1 & 2 Link together really well, as Unit 1 has to take into account the aspects of Unit 2 When setting Operating standards for machinery, as the Metal that the machinery is made of needs to be inspected, in order to find out its maximum workload, and to make sure that it is not made of an easily malleable metal, that is not prone to deforming.

Units 3 & 9 Link together Quite well also, seeing as that Unit 3 Is based around the Design Principles, which require a lot of cooperation during the creation process, Which is the link for Unit 9, Which is Relationships in the workplace. Unit 3 Requires strong relationships, in order to make sure that the client is happy with what is constructed, as they have been able to effectively convey their requirements and desires.

A connection between units 1 and 2 could be topic 9 of unit 1 (emergency procedures for unsafe situations) and Topic 5 of unit 2 (Heat principles). The connection between these two topics show through fire extinguishes and their uses and methods of heating a building. The methods of heating a building are electric wall-mounted convection heaters, electric floor-heating elements, wet floor-heating systems, wet heat-emitting systems and ground or air source heat pumps. A couple of these types of ways to heat up a building could possibly catch fire on the building and the different types of fire extinguishes will need to be known and all extinguishes should be in the building to make sure that any emergency a fire extinguisher for the right emergency can be treated correctly.

Unit 1 and Unit 3 Link

These two units link with part regulations as Part L is the main regulation (Conservation of Fuel and Power). As well as that Part all the other parts all link to Unit 3 as Unit 3 is about design principles and all the Part regulations will need to be took into account when designing the building so that all parts are followed.

# data[].attributes.body
In unit one (Health and Safety in Construction), we studied regulations in construction, for example how Part B fire safety plays are in construction. This is carried over to unity 3 ( Construction Design Principles), where we learn how to design a building to specific regulations, such as fire, for example Part B explains how a building should be designed for easy access in a fire. Furthermore, the regulations links to unit 2.2 (Material Science Principles)Where certain materials should be used to meet regulations such as insulated plasterboard to prevent thermal bridging (Part L). It’s important that the client has a good relationship with the design team to get a great understanding of how the client wants the project to be designed (Relationships in construction and  (Construction Design Principles).

In unit one, we looked at the health and safety in construction and the laws they have to follow, we studied the regulations and why and when they got put in place. Which helps improve the working standards, time on the job and how the employer has legal responsibility for the employees. This links with unit 3, design, as it needs to be a structurally stable design and with a good design it can make it safer as some parts can be made off site and done by machine making the design a key part of health and safety.

Unit three also overlaps with unit 2 as the design of the building can only be as good as the material and the way its built, this is because the science principles link in with the use of the correct material and how strong certain materials have to be.

Unit 9 relationship management is when the communication of the client and workers to allow others to get the best work possible done. Which links with unit 3 again as being able to communicate with the client, suppliers and architects. This allows the designer to fully understand what is needed and wanted by the client to allow the building to be safe, functional and what the client asks for.

In unit 5 u can see that there’s a lot of heat loss through the house such as Up to 35% heat loss through uninsulated walls / Up to 25% heat loss through the roof / Up to 10% heat loss through windows/  Up to 15% heat loss through doors/  Up to 15% heat loss through floors which is the sustainability of the building and this links to unit 3 construction design principles as with the correct design they can put insulation such as blue jean insulation. And this links to both unit 6 and unit 7 as unit 6 has the measurements therefore this would link as the builder would want to know how much of a gap to make so people can put insulation. But this all thinks to health and safety which is unit 1 as the builders need to know all the health and safety regulations with all the part such as RIDDOR HASAWA and more and all parts such as fire safety etc. this is important as they need to learn and follow the legislations to do the house which is the first part of building the house.

# data[].attributes.body
Unit 1 links with all units covered so far, this is because health and safety is an intricate and essential part of construction, which is required in any form or work carried out, even if its just to take something in consideration.

How does unit 1 link with unit 2?

Construction science Principles and Health and Safety are two key stages in the building/construction process, which have a symbiotic relationship. Both units need each other, in order for the other one to run smoothly, so that everything goes to plan, it is safe, and a good build is formed of it. For example, in Unit 1, health and safety regulations and legislations are discusses, informing workers on all the different aspects of Health and Safety that they need to acknowledge, in order to protect the health and wellbeing of co-workers and members of the public. This crosses over into Science Principles as health and safety is considered throughout all aspects within construction. If health and safety legislations aren't followed while involved in construction, then people's lives are at risk.

How does Unit 1 link with Unit 3?

Unit 1 and Unit 3 also gel together well. In Unit 3, when considering designs, the design has to be safe and well thought up before plans are even made, to make sure that people's safety isn't at risk, because of a bad design. An example of this is the Hyatt Regency Disaster, when a bridge walkway collapsed killing many people, due to a design flaw. This proves that health and safety needs to be heavily considered, so that companies know that their buildings are structurally sound, and safe.

How does Unit 1 link with Unit 9?

One example of the way that these two units link, is when an Employer is doing tool box talks with their employees. The employer could make this interesting, fun, yet informative and constructive. Having talks like these gives employees to engage amongst each other as a group, team building, and working together to ensure that health and safety is always adhered to.

these 2 units link together as unit one has a large focus on building regulations which design principles also has to look into regulations. this is because they need to put them into consideration when designing a building to abide by the regulations in place.

Units 2 & 5 (Construction Science Principles and Sustainabillity Principles) both link together. Unit 2 is about the materials used in the construction industry. Unit 5 is about what materials and methods are useful for the long term impact in the construction industry. Thee two units have a connection because they both include materials. In a real case scenario, if i wanted to know which materials i need to use to construct a building with a high tensile strength and i know it will last long, i will have to consider and analyse both units to find an answer. Both of these units are important because without even one of them, the construction industry would be a failure due to the lack of sustainable resources and specific materials for specific tasks.

these two link together because when the building is being designed it has to make sure it can be built to a good standard whilst following the correct health and safety regulations. the building will also have to be designed so it follows all building regulations whilst being built as well.

In unit 1, Health and safety in construction,we focused on health and safety and the building regulations. We learned about how and why they were in place. We learned regs such as RIDDOR and HASAWA and part a,b,c,d,e,f,g,h. This can relate to unit 3, Design principles,with the design principles and process of design, this is because in the early stages of designing a build or planning a project, the construction team inspect the health and safety of the site and ensure that the construction team meets the building regs. The planning stage of a project also links into unit 2 , Material science principles, because when planning the structural engineer will look at the suitable materials needed for the project, which links back into unit 3 with site inspectors looking at the ground and the surrounding areas and after this the structural engineer will choose suitable materials and construction format. Which finally links into unit 9 , relationship management, because the relationship of the construction team while planning is extremely important to have good communication to ensure the whole project falls together as planned... especially with the client, site inspector and structural engineer to ensure safety and stability with the project to make it successful.
