PROGRAM OVERVIEW

SURVEYING LABS

Our surveying laboratory provides students with hands-on experience to supplement instructions in surveying courses. The surveying laboratory has a wide variety of modern surveying equipment such as Digital theodolites, Automatic levels, Total Station, EDMI, GPS based instructional and research purposes. Undergraduate students use the laboratory as an integral part of their surveying coursework and obtain any topographic information that can help their capstone design projects, such as highway design and land development

GEOTECHNICAL ENGINEERING

The soil mechanics and foundation engineering is a basic undergraduate course where introduction to Geotechnical Engineering is provided. The use of laboratory allows the students to understand the complexity in the information associated with the soil structure, its behavior under different loading conditions and importance of its elements in the construction of different structures over it.

CONCRETE TECHNOLOGY

The concrete technology lab is established to train students to carry out tests on common construction materials such as concrete, cement, bricks, tiles, stones etc. The test is conducted to determine engineering properties in terms of strength, strain, fatigue, stiffness, durability etc. Major equipments include digital compression testing machine with flexural strength calculation attachment, Vicat and Le-chatlier apparatus, Los Angeles apparatus, Compaction factor and Vee-Bee consistometer apparatus and many more with advance techniques.

CAD LAB

Department provide facility where all the students of civil engineering departments get professional training on 2D and 3D drafting of civil engineering drawing using latest version of Auto CAD software.
