Civil engineering is a professional engineering discipline that deals with the design, construction, and maintenance of the physical and naturally built environment, including works like roads, bridges, canals, dams, and buildings. Civil engineering is the oldest engineering discipline after military engineering and it was defined to distinguish non-military engineering from military engineering. Civil engineering is known as the mother of all engineering, it is the oldest, broadest, most simple and useful of all engineering sciences. Being a broader field civil engineering is divided into the following sub-categories and fields….

  • Geo technical Engineering
  • Structural Engineering
  • Transportation Engineering
  • Water Resource engineering
  • Environmental Engineering
  • Earthquake Engineering
  • Urban Planning
  • Geo Informatics

The college has provided a good grooming ground for civil engineering by making available ISO certified instruments in various well-equipped laboratories. The consultancy cell undertakes construction material testing, soil testing, mix design, design of hydraulic structures and surveys works in this region.

It is the branch of engineering in which after the completion of degree, students have the possibilities to join supervisors, structural engineers, site engineers, government, engineers, inspection engineers, and quality control engineers etc. The department offers 4 year engineering course in b. tech civil engineering with intake capacity of 120 students.

Civil Engineering Works

  1. Building Construction
  2. Pavement Construction
  3. Bunker & Silo Construction
  4. High Rise Construction
  5. Dam & Reservoir Construction
Geo Technical lab

It was started under civil engineering department in 2009. Since its inception, all the faculties, students, research scholars and associated lab staff have actively contributed to its development. The laboratory is equipped to perform all the necessary basic characterization of soils, rocks and geo synthetics along with several advanced testing facilities. The vision of this division is to utilize the state-of-the art knowledge for solving problems related to subsurface. A typical geotechnical engineering laboratory helps in identifying the engineering behavior of geo materials (soils and rocks) and byproducts such as fly ash etc. There are different physical, chemical and geotechnical properties determined in the laboratory that is required for identifying the geo materials. This information is used by geotechnical engineer for designing the type of foundations, earthworks such as dams, embankments, tunnels, reservoirs, pavement sub grades, and specialized applications like waste containment systems. The preciseness of such design is entirely based on the experimental information obtained from a geotechnical laboratory. Therefore, geotechnical engineering laboratory has a great role to play in rendering the subsurface a safe and stable load bearing medium.
