Good information especially for beginners!!!

🏗️🚰 Chapter 14: Wood Work (Introduction & Methods of Measurement) Wood is a fundamental material in construction due to its versatility, durability, and natural beauty. It has been used for centuries in various structural and decorative applications. The importance of wood lies in its renewable nature, excellent insulation properties, and aesthetic appeal. Sustainable management ensures a continuous supply of this resource. Wood’s ability to provide warmth and character to buildings makes it a preferred choice for both interiors and exteriors. Understanding different wood types and their properties is crucial for selecting the right material, ensuring quality, functionality, and visual appeal in construction projects. For construction engineers in India, mastering these details is crucial for ensuring good quality, accuracy, and compliance with standards, while also facilitating accurate cost estimation.

🏗️🚰 Chapter 15: Miscellaneous Wooden Works (Introduction & Methods of Measurement) 📚 "Miscellaneous Wooden Works," focuses on various wooden elements used in construction, such as trellis work, wooden staircases, and wall linings. The materials specified include timber, hoop iron, nails, and screws, each adhering to relevant Indian Standards (I.S.). The chapter details the sizes of components like frames, laths, and the specific methods of construction, including how laths should be fixed either diagonally or at right angles to the frame. It also discusses the importance of using proper fixing methods, such as nails, screws, and rivets, and the role of hold-fasts in securing the structure. For construction engineers, this chapter is vital for accurately measuring materials in square meters and ensuring proper estimation for cost control. Understanding the various techniques and measurements helps maintain quality and structural integrity in projects involving intricate wooden works. For construction engineers in India, mastering these details is crucial for ensuring good quality, accuracy, and compliance with standards, while also facilitating accurate cost estimation.

Most colleges teaching civil engineering today (especially TTI's) don't have the necessary equipment to produce fully baked engineers. Due to that reason,many of us graduate college without knowledge of what to expect. Plus some units are taught as if they are optional. Like in the school I was at,if you did not own a personal computer,auto CAD ilikupita hivo. Now due to this reasons,not mentioning being taught by unqualified teachers, engineers out here should accept us and show us how to be engineers. Imagine someone is out of college and knows nothing and they got no connections,they end up wasting college years by being employed in small town hotels,mtumba shops or become makanga,not that it's bad,we are just surviving. I think they should designate schools to teach engineering or have a way to control the number of engineers. I am speaking on behalf of those who have no connections or people in high places. Out of the 47 I was with in class,only 10 are in engineering jobs,and 8 of them had godfathers. How I wish we all narrate our success stories someday. Good morning.

Congratulations to Our Students for Securing 1st Position in the Punjab Skills Competition 2024! We are thrilled to celebrate the success of our students, who have achieved a prestigious 1st place at the Punjab State Level Competition, organized by the Punjab Skill Development Mission. Competitions like these are vital as they highlight the importance of practical skills in shaping the future of industries and infrastructure. Civil engineering, as a discipline, plays a significant role in fostering the technical expertise and problem-solving abilities essential for success in such competitions. The principles of civil engineering — from material knowledge to design thinking and structural analysis — lay the foundation for innovations in fields like construction, manufacturing, and design. These competitions not only push students to excel in their chosen skills but also allow them to implement practical knowledge, much like real-world engineering challenges. The School of Civil Engineering takes immense pride in guiding students toward their goals, merging classroom theory with hands-on experiences. This achievement is a testament to the versatility of civil engineering education, where students not only build infrastructure but also excel in competitions that require precision, creativity, and craftsmanship. Keep inspiring us with your dedication! #LovelyProfessionalUniversity  #CivilEngineering #BestUniversity

The Indian Association of Structural Engineers (IAStructE) is organizing an Online Refresher Course on “Planning, Design, & Construction Aspects of Pre Engineered Steel Buildings” from July 27, 2024, concluding on August 31, 2024. The lectures will be organized on every Saturday afternoon from 15:00 Hrs to 18:00 Hrs (IST) through Zoom webinar. This course aims to provide an in-depth understanding of various technical issues associated with planning, structural analysis, design, codes, material, connections, anchor bolts, fabrication, transportation & erections of PEB steel buildings. This course will be useful for all civil & structural engineers who are in anyway involved with PEB structures. For the Flier giving more details, lecture schedule, and other information visit their website.
