Surveying Lab

Surveying is the art of determining relative positions of objects on the surface of earth by taking measurements in the horizontal & vertical plane. The main objective of surveying is to obtain a map or a plan of area surveyed . The success of any engineering project is based upon the accurate & complete survey work. The survey lab is fully equipped with all the major & modern equipments used for modern surveying techniques. The major instruments like Total Station, auto level, dumpy level, theodolite, prismatic compass, plane table, tangent clinometers, ghat tracer, telescopic alidade, survey scales etc. are used by the students for both plane & geodetic surveying. Surveying in the modern era is relevant to aerial as well as marine boundaries.

Structural Analysis Lab
Solid Mechanics Lab

In day to day work, an engineer comes across certain materials i.e. steel girder, angle iron, circular bars, cements etc. which are used in various civil engineering projects. While selecting a suitable material, for the project, an engineer is always interested to know its strength. The strength of material may be defined as ability, to resist its failure and behavior under the action of applied forces. It has been observed that, under the action of the forces, the material is first deformed and then its failure takes place. A detailed study of forces and their effects, along with some suitable protective measures for safe working condition is known as strength of materials. In a matter of fact, such a knowledge in very essential, for an engineer, to enable him, in designing his all types of structures and machines. The major equipments in this lab are universal testing machine(U.T.M), Torsional testing machine, Fatique testing machine, spring testing machine, Impact testing machine and hardness testing machine from which the students can take practical knowledge to check any type of metals , springs plates, sheets ,steel or any other type of material.
