The various labs available in our department
Surveying Laboratory was established in the year 2012. The main objective of this lab is to do land surveying (measure and calculate the area). The Surveying Laboratory is equipped with the instruments and tools that students use throughout the surveying course. Students learn techniques for gathering field data with both traditional and modern instruments and demonstrate their proficiency on weekly lab exercises. Each lab group – typically three students – has a dedicated set of instruments to use, including chain, compass, auto level, theodolite, and total station. Each group also has level rods, tripods, tape measures, chaining pins, and other common surveying tools and ancillary equipment.

The strength of materials laboratory was established in 2009. Demonstrating the basic principles in the area of strength and mechanics of materials to the undergraduate students through a series of experiments is the objective of Strength of Materials lab. Measuring the properties of the materials such as impact strength, tensile strength, compressive strength, hardness and ductility is conducted in the lab. Students will be able to understand the theoretical concepts of solid mechanics course and enable them to apply it practically in this lab. Different types of tests are being conducted in this laboratory to know the various mechanical properties of a material such as young’s modulus, shear modulus, hardness, toughness, deflection, fatigue strength etc.
List of Major Equipment’s
- Universal Testing Machine
- Torsion Testing Machine
- Impact Testing Machine

The Hydraulic Engineering Laboratory is established in the year 2011.It is equipped with Large scaled Turbines and efficient pumps with higher degree of accuracy. This enables the student to explore the fundamental principles of fluid mechanics through experimentation, and to investigate engineering design principles for pipe networks, open channel systems, and ground water regimes.
Most of the experiments are designed to be performed by the students groups of four persons. These group experiments are fully interactive and involve: (1) set-up; (2) operation; (3) measurement; (4) adjustment; (5) data gathering; and (6) data reduction. The group approach also teaches the value of teamwork in problem solving during the laboratory period, as well as after class as data are exchanged and reduced.
