Concrete
technology provides information on materials, properties, mix design, types,
strength and durability of concrete. To enhance the quality of
workmanship properties of various materials used in civil engineering is of
prime importance and this experiments to know the properties and behaviour of
construction materials is carried out in Concrete Technology laboratory. This
laboratory will provide knowledge of materials such as cement, sand, aggregate etc.
This laboratory also provide good knowledge of fresh concrete and hardened
concrete properties.
This laboratory gives the basic understanding of
structural member under the action of loads by applying engineering mechanics
laws. Engineering Mechanics is to develop the capacity to predict the effects
of force while carrying out the creative design functions of engineering. This
lab will give experience to learn and apply the principles required to solve engineering
mechanics problems. The students will experience the changes in behaviour of
structure due to application of loads. Basics of determinate structures will be
introduced through experiment. The main purpose of any structure is to support
the loads coming on it by properly transferring them to the foundation.
Soil mechanics laboratory at the department level provide the
practical and hands-on experience in carrying out various tests related to soil
material. Soil mechanics laboratory is useful for carrying out practical
related to properties of soil, which is of utmost importance in laying
foundation of various civil engineering structures such as dams, roads, bridges
and buildings. This laboratory will help students in identifying the type of
soil and its different properties.
Many materials
are being used for construction, the prime importance of that material is its
strength. I.e. tensile, compression, shear, etc. can be tested in this
laboratory. Laboratory also deals with the measurement of deflection and
important phenomena of mass moment of inertia for a solid body.
