Sažetak
This paper has describes a Croatian educational experience about possibility of implementing a combination of the famous method of “work study” and the most modern simulation software to improve construction production. For the first time the students had observed the capital technological construction processes “on site” and then measured the necessary time for their execution by the well known “chronometric” method. During the second exercise they had analyzed the real observed processes and the sample of collected data. After that, they made a “graphic-simulation” model using the best-known software “Stroboscope” for simulation “just” the construction technological processes. At the end of their training exercise, the students concluded about the possibilities of improving technological construction processes on a “real site”. The main goal of this paper was to describe the “real process” of real education for some regular Croatian students. The simulation of construction processes, with real collection of data, may train the students about what to do in real situations. Of course, this paper presents only the general approach without greater detail.
