Laboratory

COMPUTER AIDED DESIGN LABORATORY
CAD stands for Computer Aided Design. CAD is used to design, develop and optimize products. While it is very versatile, CAD is extensively used in the design of tools and equipment required in the manufacturing process as well as in the construction domain. CAD enables design engineers to layout and to develop their work on a computer screen, print and save it for future editing. In Civil department High-end computer facilities and licensed CAD software’s are available to students.
BUILDING MATERIALS LABORATORY
BMT lab provides facilities to conduct various tests to calculate properties of the steel specimens. Since steel of various grades is used as main reinforcement material in most of the structures, so knowledge gained in this lab is imperative for proper understanding of the advance courses on design of steel/concrete structures. Major equipment in this lab includes Universal Testing Machine, torsion testing machine, impact testing machine, Brinell hardness testing machine, Rockwell hardness testing machine.
SURVEYING LABORATORY
The Surveying Laboratory is established with the purpose of enabling students to practice land surveying techniques using a wide spectrum of surveying equipment ranging from prismatic compass, dumpy levels, auto levels and theodolites to the latest electronic total stations with data collectors and digital GPS equipment. The laboratory provides facilities for linear, space and angular measurements in the field.
ENVIRONMENTAL LABORATORY
The Environmental lab is fully equipped with advanced equipments to check various impurities present in water in the form of dissolved components and solvents in the form of salts, chemicals as well as alkalies or alkalinities. The lab has potential for carrying out research and consultancy work for various projects related to the environment. With the addition of new Sound level meter, Flame photometer, SPM – High Volume sampler, BOD incubator, COD Digestor, Hot air oven, Muffle Furnace and UV Spectrophotometer, this lab has become the most advanced environment testing laboratory.
GEOTECHNICAL ENGINEERING LABORATORY
The objective this lab is to check the basic properties of soil of a certain area that is to be used for construction purpose. Soil properties include Atterbergs limits, bearing capacity, liquid limit, plastic limit, moisture content, etc. The lab is equipped with equipments like: casagrande appatatus, direct shear apparatus, triaxial test apparatus, unconfined compression test apparatus, standard proctor test apparatus, grain size analysis test apparatus, permeability test apparatus etc.
CONCRETE & HIGHWAY MATERIALS LABORATORY
The concrete technology lab is established to train students to carry out tests on common construction materials such as concrete, cement, tiles etc. The tests are conducted to determine the engineering properties in terms of strength, strain, fatigue, creep, elasticity, stiffness durability, and workability. Major equipment includes digital compression testing machine with flexural strength calculation attachment, standard test sieves (coarse and fine sets) with sieve shaking machine, (slump test, compaction factor and Vee-Bee time apparatus).
FLUID MECHANICS & HYDRAULICS MACHINES LABORATORY
The objective of this laboratory is to determine the various parameters related to fluid flow in pipes and in open channels. At present it is equipped with hydraulic benches & various stand-alone equipment to carry out experiments like verification of the Bernoulli’s energy equation, determination of coefficient of discharge for venturimeter &orifice meter, determination of discharge coefficient for various notches, determination of hydraulic coefficients for flow through an orifice, determination of friction coefficient for pipes of various diameters, impact of jets on flat, Inclined & semi-circular vanes and calculation of minor head losses in pipes. The laboratory also houses Pelton Wheel Turbine, Kaplan Turbine, Francis Turbine, Centrifugal pump and Reciprocatory pump.
ADVANCED STRUCTURAL LABORATORY - PG
The objective of structural analysis laboratory is to determine the forces, stresses, deflections and behaviour of various structural members like beams, columns, arches, trusses and frames when subjected to different types of loadings. Advanced structural laboratory was established with state of art facilities with NDT and advanced equipment’s especially for research and post graduate programmes. The major equipment are Proceq make original Schmidt concrete test hammer (type N), Pundit Lab + Ultrasonic Testing Instrument, Concrete Mixer (Pan type, 40 litre capacity), Concrete Permeability test apparatus with compressor (20kg/cm2), Longitudinal Compressor meter (Digital), Digital compressor testing machine 300T, Lateral Extensometer – Digital, Steam curing tank with 6 cubes of 150mm capacity with compressor, Rapid chloride penetration test, etc.
