Sri Sai College of Engineering and Technology

Visit to STP

The students of Civil Engineering department have visited sewage treatment plant situated near the college campus. This visit helped students to enhance their collective theoretical and practical knowledge of treatment plants. Through the visit, students got an in- depth knowledge of the various components of the treatment plant. Physical observation of various processes of plants will definitely be enhanced the skill and understanding of the students. In the nutshell, the visit was quite helpful for the students to get the practical knowledge regarding the functioning and various processes of treatment plant.

DCA Week

The department of civil engineering organized DCA Week from 13th to 17th Feb, 2019. It helped students to enhance their technical knowledge and bridge the gap between theoretical training and practical learning in real life environment.

Industrial Visit

An industrial visi was jointly organized by department of Civil, Mechanical and Electrical engineering. The purpose of tour was make students understand work culture in industries.

                    Lab Facilities

The Department has fully equipped state-of-the-art laboratories supervised by experienced faculty members. There are trained technicians to help the students in performing the experiments.

Department Laboratories

• FLUID MECHANICS LAB
  • A basic knowledge of Fluid mechanics is essential for all the civil engineers as they frequently come across a variety of problems involving flow of fluids, force of fluid on structural surfaces etc. This laboratory is used for experimentation on the properties and behavior of fluids.

• SOIL MECHANICS LAB
  • The soil lab provides academic and research services through performing all lab tests needed for analysis and study of soil characteristics and its properties.

• CAD LAB
  • The CAD Lab is equipped with AutoCAD software and is extensively used for design and drawing. The knowledge gained in the lab eventually equips the students to provide quality service once employed in the industry.

• STRUCTURE ANALYSIS LAB
  • The Structural Analysis Lab facilitates in the determination of the effects of loads on physical structures and their components. Results of the analysis are used to verify a structure’s fitness for use.

• CONCRETE LAB
  • Concrete is the most widely used construction material. The concrete laboratory tests every component in the concrete mix design as well as the concrete mix itself. The lab provides evaluation of the plastic properties of the mix as well as the hardened properties.

Introduction

The growth of civilization goes hand in hand with the growth in the infrastructure of a country. Civil engineering is the mother of all engineering branches. The history of Civil Engineering can be traced back to the beginning of civilization when man started building huts for living and invented wheel for transport. Over the years, this field has evolved into a branch of engineering which involves the application of physical and scientific principles for solving problems of the society. Civil engineering is a wide ranging profession, including several separate specialized sub-disciplines; its history is linked to knowledge of structures, materials science, geography, geology, soils, hydrology, environment, mechanics and other fields.

Civil Engineers play a very important role in improving the living standards of a society. Civil Engineers are involved in three areas of activity, namely, Designing, Construction and Maintenance. They contribute to design and construction of bridges, tunnels, roads, railways, airways, dams, pipelines and major buildings. In addition, Civil Engineers safeguard the environment against pollution of air, land and water, by implementing proper treatment techniques and managing the natural resources for future generation.

Civil engineering is the second-oldest engineering discipline after military engineering, and it is defined to distinguish non-military engineering from military engineering. It is traditionally broken into several sub-disciplines including architectural engineering, engineering, geotechnical, geophysics, geodesy, control engineering, structural engineering, transportation engineering, earth science, sciences, forensic, municipal or urban engineering, water resources engineering, materials engineering, offshore engineering, surveying, coastal, surveying, and construction engineering.

The department offers 2 years M.Tech Course in Structural Engineering and Soil Mechanics and Foundation Engineering.

M.Tech in Structural Engineering program includes advanced structural mechanics, finite element analysis, structural dynamics, structural reliability and optimization, reinforced and pre-stressed concrete, steel structures, design for wind and earthquake, tall buildings and towers, computer applications in structural engineering, etc. Students have access to a structural lab, material testing lab, computer lab and geo-technical engineering lab and a library.

M.Tech. in Soil Mechanics and Foundation Engineering is a 2-year full-time post-graduate course divided across 4 semesters. This branch of engineering involves the application of principles of soil mechanics and rock mechanics for investigation and study of subsurface materials and conditions. Such findings help deduce important information about physical materials, subsurface materials and structures, and their chemical and mechanical properties. Soil, rock, bedrock, and fault distribution properties of the project site are also studied in detail.

Goals of the Department

• Overall personality development of the students of the department.
• To provide best teaching –learning to the students by using latest teaching aids so that teaching becomes interesting.
• Hands –on Practical training to all the students so that they can handle all the equipment/instruments independently.
• To arrange expert lectures/workshops /Educational Tours for students for better understanding of theory subjects.
• Industry-Institute –Interaction programme for problem solving of the industry and latest development.
• To encourage students to serve the society with their knowledge in the field of environment and other societal needs.
