OBJECTIVES:
To provide
exposure to the students with hands on experience on various basic engineering
practices in Civil, Mechanical,
Electrical and Electronics Engineering.
GROUP A (CIVIL & MECHANICAL)
I CIVIL ENGINEERING PRACTICE 9
Buildings: (a)
Study of plumbing and carpentry components of residential and industrial
buildings.
Safety aspects.
Plumbing Works:
(a) Study of pipeline joints, its
location and functions: valves, taps, couplings, unions,
reducers, elbows in household
fittings.
(b) Study of pipe connections
requirements for pumps and turbines.
(c) Preparation of plumbing line
sketches for water supply and sewage works.
(d) Hands-on-exercise:
Basic pipe connections – Mixed pipe
material connection – Pipe connections with different
joining components.
(e) Demonstration of plumbing
requirements of high-rise buildings.
Carpentry using Power Tools only:
(a) Study of the joints in roofs,
doors, windows and furniture.
(b) Hands-on-exercise: Wood work,
joints by sawing, planing and cutting.
II MECHANICAL ENGINEERING PRACTICE 13
Welding:
(a) Preparation of arc welding of butt
joints, lap joints and tee joints.
(b) Gas welding practice
Basic Machining:
(a) Simple Turning and Taper turning
(b) Drilling Practice
