INSTRUCTIONAL STRATEGY
This subject is of practical nature. While imparting instructions, teachers are expected to
organize demonstrations and field visits to show various stages of concreting operations.
While working in the laboratory, efforts should be made to provide extensive practical
training to students so as to make them confident in the preparation and testing of
concrete. Teachers should also organize viva examination so as to develop understanding
about concepts and principles involved. The experiments may be demonstrated to
students through video programmes developed in the field of „concrete technology‟ by
NITTTR, Chandigarh.

RATIONALE
One of the basic necessities of life is water which is not easily available to a lot of people.
Providing potable water at the first place then collection and disposal of waste solids and
liquids are important activities of civil engineering field. This subject provides basic
knowledge and skills in the field of water supply system and waste disposal system.
Classroom instructions should be suplimented by field visits to show functional details of
water supply and waste disposal systems. It will also be advantageous to invite
professionals from field to deliver extension lectures on specialised operations.

RATIONALE
The important functions of a civil engineer includes the jobs of detailed surveying,
plotting of survey data, preparation of survey maps and setting out works
While framing the curriculum for the subject of surveying, stress has been given to the
development of knowledge and skill in theodolite surveying, tachometry surverying,
curves and use of minor and modern instruments have been included in this subject.
Field work should be a selected one so that student can check his work and have an idea
of the results the extent of error in the work done by him. As far as possible, the surveys
done should be got plotted, as this will also reveal errors in the work and develop skill in
plotting.

This is a basic engineering subject. The purpose of the subject is to impart basic
knowledge and skill regarding properties of materials, concept of stresses and strains,
bending moment and shear force diagrams, second moment of area, bending and shear
stresses, slope and deflection and analysis of trusses. The above knowledge will be useful
for designing simple structural components. This subject is very important to develop

INSTRUCTIONAL STRATEGY
Teachers are expected to develop skills in preparation and interpretation of water supply
and waste water engineering drawings as per BIS codes of practice. Attention must be
paid towards line work, specifications writing, dimensioning, proportioning and accuracy
for industrial unit at different intervals of time. Reading and interpreting actual field

The employment opportunities for diploma holders especially in public sector are
dwindling. The diploma holders need to explore the possibilities of becoming
entrepreneurs. For this, they must be acquainted with entrepreneurship development,
scope of setting up small-scale industry, existing business opportunities, financial support
available and various aspects of managing business. In this context, an entrepreneurial
awareness camp is suggested. During the camp, experts from various organizations such
as banks, financial corporations, service institutes etc. may be invited to deliver expert
lectures. Successful entrepreneurs may also be invited to interact with the students.
Students may be encouraged to read papers or give seminar during the camp on
Entrepreneurship Development related topics.
The camp is to be organized at a stretch for two to three days during fourth semester.
Lectures will be delivered on the following broad topics. There will be no examination for
this subject
1. Who is an entrepreneur?
