Civil Engineering Department Facilities

Lab and resources
The department is well equipped to give practical training in various subjects. In the first year, students of all branches are exposed to survey labs and masonry workshops along with mechanical and electrical workshops. Other labs of the department are:

Material testing lab: The lab has facilities for testing mechanical properties of materials used in constructions. Students of both civil and mechanical branch use these facilities.

List of equipments:

• Universal testing machine 
• Torsion testing machine
• Spring testing machine
• Impact testing machine
•  hardness testing machine
• Compression testing machine

Survey Lab: Civil engineering students need extensive training in surveying. The lab has all the instruments needed for this.
Some of the important equipments available in survey lab are the following:

• Total Station:- This is an electronic device which measures horizontal and vertical angles and slope distances in a single integrated unit.  

• Theodolite :- This is an instrument used for measuring angles  and distance  

Geotechnical Engineering lab: It is well equipped with instruments and machineries for conducting laboratory tests and for extending consultancy service to government and private organizations. Students get good exposure to the tests related to soil mechanics. The experience in this lab equips the students with a good understanding of geotechnical engineering problems. 

Concrete Laboratory: This lab provides facilities for various tests for cement and concrete which includes test for compressive strength, flexural strength, fineness, and mix design of concrete etc.
