GENERAL INTRODUCTION
The practical training conducted by the engineering student at the respective industrial units related
to their subjects is termed as “industrial training “.for example a civil engineering student requires
practical exposure at the building construction sites, road construction projects etc. the industry
institute interaction is a need of the hour. The industrial training is a part of continuous learning
process. So this field exposure that uplifts the knowledge and experience of student needs to be
properly documented in the form of report, which can be termed as “industrial report” a properly
prepared industrial training report can facilitate the presentation of the field experience is an
orderly, precise and interesting manner, which can off course well serve as a guide to the new
entrant engineers. The purpose of industrial training is:-
1) To provide field exposure to the student.
2) To have better understanding of engineering practices.
3) To make them adapt to industrial condition.
4) To provide opportunities to the student to handle tasks independently.
5) To help student to understand about the duties of an engineer and other supervisory
staff in an organization.
6) To make them aware with the common industrial problems.
7) To impart intensive training to the student to enable them to learn and use working of
latest field equipment machine.

ABOUT SURVEY
INTRODUCTION: Surveying is the art of determining the relative position of points on, above or beneath and surface of the earth by means of direct or indirect measurement of distance, direction and elevation. Surveying is the technique, profession, and science of accurately determining the terrestrial or three-dimensional position of points and the distances and angle between them, and member of various buildings. These points are usually on the surface of the earth, and they are often used to establish land maps, locations or other governmentally required for civil purposes. INSTRUMENT USED FOR SURVEYING:
Auto level: It is an instrument used to determine the elevation of any point or to maintain a proper level before any type of constructional work.
INDRAJEET KUMAR, GNDEC 14
Total station and Target Prism A total station is an electronic instrument used in modern surveying. It is integrated with an Electronic Distance Meter (EDM) to read the elevation of any particular point. A Target Prism is used which reflect the rays coming from Total Station and all the data i.e., Easting, Northing, Reduced level, Horizontal angle and vertical angle is collected. It also allows the operator to control the instrument via remotely i.e. without help of Target Prism as sometimes the prism is not accessible due to some hindrance.
TOTAL STATION TARGET PRISM
Measuring Tape : 1. To determine the exact offset from the Proposed C/L for the construction of Crash
Barrier, and the pavement design. 2. To determine the proper spacing and other measurement of structural work.
INDRAJEET KUMAR, GNDEC 15
PURPOSE OF SURVEYING IN OUR PROJECT
The commencement and completion of Highway Project depends upon the surveying. In
Transportation Engineering , surveying is an art that transfer the levels , locations , distances ,
offsets from centre line of road , positioning of structural elements and elements of Right Of Way
(i.e. Carriageway , kerbs , shoulders , medians , edge strips , pavement strip etc.) from the
Designed-drawings to the ground .
Thus the functions of surveying in our project report are detailed discussed as given below:
Topography Survey
For Construction of Structural Elements
For Construction of Road Pavement Layers
Topography Survey:
Topography survey is the base of Highway project. It is an essential requirement for preparing
drawings of existing highway (Four-Lane) and further planning for proposed right of way
(Six-Lane). The basic need of topography survey is to prepare a Base-Map. The map which
is showing the existing structural elements (i.e. Culverts, Pipe encasing , Bridges etc.) ,
locality (i.e. Cities , Villages , Buildings, Towers , Electric poles, Ponds , trees etc.) and
Reduced levels of Road Pavement at fixed intervals in terms of coordinates on the existing
four-Lane , is known as base map.
During Topography survey along the center line of road (on the medians) two TBM (temporary
bench-mark) are placed between 5 km of distance by use of GPS (Global positioning system)
up to the total length of road.
Between the 5 kms of distance further TBM’s are placed at fixed interval of 200 mtr by use of
Total station instrument. On these TBM’s a suitable markings are made according to their
chainage i.e. 417/A, 399/A, CP2WD.
In the office work a detailed data is prepared for each TBM along their chainage which shows
its coordinates and Reduced-Levels.
INDRAJEET KUMAR, GNDEC 16
Further by use of Total station, Topography is done .The all elements i.e. Buildings , Schools,
Towers , Trees , Electric poles and Ponds etc. , that becomes the cause of obstacles in the
Proposed Right Of Way (PROW) , their coordinates and reduced levels are recorded in the
Total Station.
Then this recorded data is transferred to the computer to prepare a detailed drawings by use of Auto-Cad and further planning of project.

INDRAJEET KUMAR, GNDEC 18
For Construction of structural elements
In the layout of structural elements the surveyor provides the end-points and levels of structure to
be built on the ground by use of both Total- station and Auto level. Total-station is used to place
exact points on the ground in terms of coordinates while Auto-level is used to provide bottom level
of structure so that to guide the site engineer about depth of excavation.
A surveyor holds a TBM list always with him from which he easily found the nearby TBM on
ground.
Then he note down the coordinates and reduced level of that TBM and setup his TS by
bisecting towards the TBM.
Then surveyor has the specification of the structure to be build i.e. N-E coordinates, reduced
levels, bottom level of PCC for structure and final top level of structure etc.
Then he fix the end / corner points of structure.
Afterwards he provides the bottom level of the PCC of structure by use of Auto level. When
PCC has laid down then with reference of the fixed points the reinforcement is being cast and
shuttering work is done to raise the structure.

For Construction of pavement layers
The layout of each layer i.e. GSB layer, CTSB, CTB, DBM, BC-layers is made on the basis of
offsets that are marked on the existing road pavement at 10 m from the center line at fixed
intervals of 20m.
From these offsets, the required width of road i.e. main carriageway to be widened and service
road width is measured.
After measuring the width at the end side of the road, pegs are driven at a distance of 750mm.
The pegs have also a horizontal steel beam whose length of 250mm. Thus the available distance
is 750-250 = 500mm.
Now the beam of the pegs is movable as it can be moved up and down.
Adjusting the beam of the peg
INDRAJEET KUMAR, GNDEC 22
Thus by the use of Auto-level and nearby TBM, the height of beam is maintained to the
required proposed road level.
Pegs with steel wire providing proposed R-level
Thus pegs are driven at fixed interval of 10m.
At the end of beam of pegs, a cut is provided on which a steel wire is tied throughout the length
up to layer is to be laid down.
According to the level of steel wire paver machine will be laid down the layer upto a depth of proposed level of road by its sensor system.

ABOUT HIGHWAY
National Highways (NH) are main highways running through the length and breadth of India,
connecting major ports , foreign highways , capitals of large states and large industrial and
tourist centres including roads required strategic movements for the defense of India . The
responsibility of construction and maintenance of national highways was decided to be with
central government.
The surface of the roadway should be stable and non-yielding, to allow the heavy wheel loads
of traffic to move with least rolling resistance. The road surface should also be even along the
longitudinal profile to enable the fast vehicles to move safely and comfortably at the design
speed. The earth road may not be able to fulfil the requirements, especially during the varying
conditions of traffic and the weather changes. Therefor a pavement consisting of superior and
stronger materials is laid over the prepared earth surface which could fulfil all the requirements.
The objective of laying a pavement is to support the wheel loads and to transfer the load stresses
through a wider area on the so subgrade below.
A pavement layer material is considered more effective or superior, if it is able to distribute the
wheel load stress through a large area per unit thickness of the layer.
Highway engineering is the back bone of civil engineering. It helps us in understanding road phenomena’s i.e., shoulder, slope or camber for draining water, pavement thickness etc. So, during construction, we need to keep all the parameters in mind otherwise it may leads to severe discomforts. Therefore the construction of the road is to be done as per the Typical Cross Section (TCS) approved by the client. One of the Typical Cross Section is, as given below:
INDRAJEET KUMAR, GNDEC 24
INDRAJEET KUMAR, GNDEC 25
PAVEMENT: A pavement consists of few layers of materials, is constructed over a prepared soil subgrade to serve as a carriageway. A pavement carries a wheel loads and transfer the load stresses through a wider area on the soil subgrade. A pavement layer is considered more effective, if it is able to distribute the wheel load stress through a larger area per unit depth of the layer. The thickness design for pavement layers for the traffic between 2 and 30 msa is exactly as per IRC 37-2001.
PURPOSE: Load support Smoothness Drainage The surface of roadway should be stable and non-yielding to allow the heavy wheel loads
of traffic to move with least possible rolling resistance.
TYPES OF PAVEMENTS 1. Rigid pavement. 2. Flexible pavement.
RIGID PAVEMENT: Rigid pavement consist of a cement concrete slab, below which a granular base or sub-base
may be provided. It possess a noteworthy flexural strength and the stresses are not transferred
from grain to grain to the lower layers. . Rigid pavements has the ‘slab action’ and is capable
of transmitting the wheel load stresses through a much wider area below the pavement slab.
FLEXIBLE PAVEMENT: The flexible pavement consists of the bituminous concrete layer. It possess negligible flexural strength and transmit the vertical or compressive stresses to the lower layers by grain to grain transfer through the point of contact in the granular structure. It consists of the following layers:
1. Subgrade soil 2. Sub-base course 3. Base course 4. Surface Layer
INDRAJEET KUMAR, GNDEC 26
PROPERTIES OF DIFFERENT LAYERS OF PAVEMENT:
1. SUBGRADE LAYER: It is the native material underneath a pavement crust. It is the integral part of the road pavement
structure as it provides the support to the pavement from beneath. The main function of the
subgrade is to provide adequate support to the pavement and for this, subgrade should possess
sufficient stability under adverse and loading condition. The minimum thickness for subgrade to
be provided is 500mm.
Before the soil is used as a subgrade, its laboratory test is conducted as per its size, shape,
surface texture, load bearing capacity etc.
At first, it’s Free Swell Index and composition of silt, clay and sand is determined. If its
swelling value comes below the range of 50% and also content greater Composition of sand
then only it is accepted.
Further carried out for other tests i.e., max. Dry density, CBR value etc. for its purpose of
use. If the CBR value comes greater than 15%, the soil is used for the purpose of laying out
for the subgrade soil as well as for the embankment construction. And if it’s CBR comes
below 15% then it only used for embankment purpose.
Sometimes the native soil at the site may be too weak to support a structure, so the soil is
replaced by taking it from other borrows areas conforming the all laboratory tests.
INDRAJEET KUMAR, GNDEC 27
The various borrow areas which are used here for subgrade and embankment purposes are:
INDRAJEET KUMAR, GNDEC 28
2. SUB-BASE COURSE: These layers are used under the flexible pavement primarily to improve the load supporting
capacity by distributing a load to a finite thickness i.e., 200-250mm.
In all cases of this layer, the top 100mm thickness of Sub-base is to be porous and act as
drainage layer.
The thickness of these layers are also evaluated by IRC 37-2001 as per CBR value and the Average Annual Daily Traffic (in msa).
There are two types of Sub-base layers which are mostly used:
1. Granular Sub-base(GSB):
The Granular Sub-base layers are made of broken stones, bound or unbound aggregate or the granular soil with no cementatious quantity.
It is desirable to use smaller size graded aggregates or soil aggregate mix instead of large boulder stone. These layers are mainly provided in main carriageway. The summary test results for GSB layer materials is:

2. Cementatious Sub-base (CTSB):
The cementatious Sub-base contains 2-3% of cement with proper sizes of Coarse
Aggregates and Fine Aggregates followed by MORTH section 400. In all cases of this
layer, the top 100mm thickness of Sub-base is to be porous and act as drainage layer.
The thickness of these layers are also evaluated by IRC 37-2001 as per CBR value and the
Average Annual Daily Traffic (in msa).
The laboratory test to be performed for CTSB layer is :
i. Sieve Analysis Test.
ii. Compressive Strength Test.

3. BASE-COURSE:
Base course is as the most important component of flexible pavement layer which sustain the wheel load stresses and disperses through large area onto the Sub-Base layer below.
The Base-Course primarily has the similar function as that of the Sub-Base course and is provided with superior materials than sub-base course. The function of the base course vary according to the type of pavement.
As per MORTH section 400, the aggregates used in base course should have low Aggregate Impact Value (less than 30 %).
The two main base-course which are used here are:
1. Wet Mix Macadam Layer (WMM): It consists of Coarse Aggregate with size of 40mm,
20mm, and 10mm and the Dust particles with no cement content. These layers are mainly
used for extending main carriage way only. It is laid over the sub base layer by at least two
number of layers each of having 125mm thick.
2. Cementatious Base Course (CTB): CTB is an improved base course treated with cement.
It contents the same size of aggregates as that of WMM in addition 4 to 5% of cement.
Here, these layers are mainly used in the construction of new roads i.e., service road, roads
on the fly over etc.

The summary of the test results for WMM materials are as below:
INDRAJEET KUMAR, GNDEC 33
The laboratory test to be performed for CTB layer is:
i. Sieve Analysis test. ii. Compressive Strength Test.
INDRAJEET KUMAR, GNDEC 34
PRIME COAT:
Bituminous prime coat is the first application of a low viscosity liquid bituminous material over an existing porous pavement surface like the WMM, CTB etc.
The main objective of priming is to bond the loose material on the existing surface and to plug in the capillary voids of the porous surface, using a binder of low viscosity which can penetrates into the voids.
The bituminous primer is sprayed uniformly using using a mechanical sprayer at a
rate of 6 to 9 kg per 10m2 area, depending on the porosity of the surface. The primed surface is allowed to cure for at least 24 hours, during which period no traffic is allowed.
TACK COAT:
A tack coat is the second application of coating which is applied over the prime coat. Sometimes a tack coat is applied on the existing bituminous surface as the first coating without application of prime coat.
It is usually applied by spraying bituminous material of high viscosity like the hot bitumen at the rate of 2.5 to 3 kg per 10 m2 area depending upon the type of the surface.
The main objective of spraying the tack coat is to make an interface
between DBM and the WMM layer and also to make an impervious layer of seal coat. It is sprayed at least one hour before laying of DBM layer.

ABOUT STRUCTURES
INTRODUCTION: Structural engineering is based upon the applied physical laws and empirical knowledge of the structural performance. It is derived from the latin word “Structra” which means “put together systematically” so any type of material when systematically arranged to support the external mass is known as structure. In civil engineering, the load carrying members when joined together to take several type of loads systematically and safely transfer to the ground is termed as structure.
Aims of Structural Engineering in Our Project
In our project Barwa-Adda-Panagarh NH2, structural engineering deals with the construction

REINFORCEMENT
“Reinforcement is the Skelton of structure”. The tensile strength of cement concrete is just
about 10 percent of its compressive strength so steel bars are used to reinforce cement concrete
in the tension zone of flexural members to compensate for the low tensile strength of cement
concrete .
The original load carrying capacity of cement concrete is very much increased by providing
additional tensile strength by using steel bars.
The steel has high strength material as compared to concrete. The compressive yield strength
of ordinary steel bars is about 25 times, the compressive strength of cement concrete and
tensile strength of steel bars is about 70 times the tensile strength of cement concrete.
Reinforcement if suitably designed and placed, increases the strength of concrete as well as
controls the effect of shrinkage and temperature changes.
GRADE OF STEEL USED HERE – Fe 500D

Precaution to be kept in mind while installing reinforcement
Proper clear cover is provided by cover blocks.
Check vertical stirrups with proper hook.
Chairs of minimum 12mm dia. bars should be used.
Check the numbers of bars as per drawing.
The provision of lap splices should not be less than 56times of dia. of bars.
Each bar should be bonded with another by binding wires only.
All reinforcement should be free from loose rust and coats of paints, oil, or any other substances.
Proper spacing should be provided as per drawing/BBS.
FORMWORK AND FALSEWORK
Formwork for in-situ concrete may be described as a mould or box into which wet concrete
can be poured and compacted. It is temporary structure in the sense that is erected quickly,
highly loaded for a few hours during the concrete pour and within a few days disassembled for
the future reused.
False work is the horizontal and vertical load bearing members which supports the
formwork.
Component of false work and formwork:
1. Shuttering Plates
2. Soldier
3. Tie-Rods
4. Horizontal props & Vertical props
5. Cap-lock & laser pipe
6. U-Jack
7. Base-Jack
INDRAJEET KUMAR, GNDEC 69
Horizontal / Vertical Props & Shuttering Plates
View of Formwork and Falsework
INDRAJEET KUMAR, GNDEC 70
Form-work and falsework must fulfil the requirements as below:
Should be strong enough to support load of wet concrete i.e. 2400 kg per m3.
Must not able to deflect under load, which includes the loading of wet concrete, self-weight and
superimposed loads.
Must be accurately set out.
Have well - tight joints.
Should have bolting arrangement to joint adjacent shuttering plates.
Having well arrangement of Tie-rods in shoulder.
CONCRETING
Concrete is a mixture of cement, water, fine aggregates and coarse aggregates which when placed in
forms and allowed to cure becomes hard like stone. The hardening is caused by chemical reactions
between water and cement and concrete grown stronger with age. The weight of cement concrete is
24 KN / m 3.
It has a poor tensile strength and is liable to crack when subjected to tension. It also give rise to
shrinkage stresses.
To overcome the tensile stress plain cement concrete is reinforced with steel bars, these will
develop tensile strength in concrete in tension and known as Reinforced Cement Concrete.
INDRAJEET KUMAR, GNDEC 71
Type of Concrete Mix:
The proportion of concrete is done on the basis of design mix. In the design mix concrete the

Transporting and placing of concrete:
The process of carrying concrete mix from the place of its mixing to the final position to deposition is
called transportation of concrete. Transportation of concrete mix is very important because in
transportation, time factor is involved. The mix should be transported as quickly as possible.
The process of depositing the concrete in its required position is known as placement of concrete.
The quality of concrete also depends on the method of placing. If it is not placed properly segregation
will take place.
Machinery used:
1. Boom Placer (Concrete Pump)
2. Transit mixer
3. Needle vibrator
1. Concreting of VUP Raft by Boom Placer (433+570)
INDRAJEET KUMAR, GNDEC 73
2. Pouring of concrete
Precaution during placing of concrete:
The concrete should not be dropped from a height of more than 1 m to prevent segregation.
Oiling should be done properly on the internal surface of the steel formwork before placing
concrete so that the concrete may not stick to it.
After placing each layer of concrete, vibration should be done properly by inserting needle
vibrator vertically at points 0.45 to 0.75m apart to compact the concrete.
Over vibration should be avoided to avoid segregation.
During concreting, formwork should not be disturbed.
The concrete should be kept agitated in truck mixer so that it does not becomes stiff when
transportation is likely to take more time.
Chute should be used when concrete is to be placed below lower level and must be placed on
a slope sufficient steep to handle concrete of the least slump.
After 24 hrs deshuttering should be done and curing arrangement is made for at least 7 days.
INDRAJEET KUMAR, GNDEC 74
CURING:
The term 'curing' is used to include maintenance of concrete structures in favorable
environment for the continuation of chemical reactions, i.e. retention of moisture within, or
supplying moisture to the concrete from an external source and protection against extremes of
Temperature.

A. Construction of Culvert with Retaining wall Introduction:
Culvert: A culvert is a structure that allows water to flow under a road, or other obstruction from one side to the other. It may be made of a pipe, reinforced concrete or other materials.
Retaining Wall: Retaining walls are structure designed to restrain soil to unnatural slopes. They are used to bound soil between two different elevations.
Purpose of Use of Culvert: To pass the drainage water. To pass the cable wire. To pass the water supply pipeline.
Types: In this project, according to the shape, three types of Culvert are used:
1. Slab Culvert 2. Box Culvert 3.Hume Pipe Culvert
Slab Culvert Box Culvert

Way of Construction:
a. Site Clearance: Cutting , removing , and disposing off all materials such as trees , bush , sherbs , stumps , roots , grass , weeds , top organic soil etc. should be removed first.
b. Excavation: Here we are to extend the culvert from the existing culvert, so the mid-point
of the existing culvert is taken out by Tape and according to that, the excavation is carried out. It is carried out mechanically by backhoe loader. As the electric wire passes above the construction, adequate operation were taken to see that the excavator do not touches the wire. Excavation is carried out providing flat surface. The depth of the excavation is taken as per the RL of the drawing (i. e., 3.5m) from TBM point of the crash barrier.

After Excavation
Shear Key excavation
INDRAJEET KUMAR, GNDEC 82
There are some points which should be kept in mind at the time of excavation. o The level of the depth of excavation should be checked by the auto level to avoid the
excess cutting. It helps the structure to be at proper level and minimize the consumption of concrete.
o The excavation should be done by taking at least one metre greater in length as per the dimensions of the drawing. It helps to layout the PCC properly and to make the shuttering easily.
o Bottom of the trench shall be cleaned, free of loose material, rock projection and the surface should be levelled and moistened uniformly before laying the PCC.
c. Laying of P.C.C. (Plain Cement Concrete): After the completion and labelling, laying of Plain Cement Concrete is done. A layer of 150mm thick PCC of grade M15 with 100mm projection was made in such a manner that it was not mixed with the soil. It provides a solid base for the raft foundation and a mix of 1:3:5 that is 1 part of cement to 3 parts of fine aggregates and 5 parts of coarse aggregate by weight were used in it.

INDRAJEET KUMAR, GNDEC 83
d. Construction of Raft: i. Bar-binding: The bars for the raft was tied as according to structural
drawing up to the height determined from the framing plan. The proper binding of the bars gives the sufficient tensile strength to the structure.
ii. Formwork: The shuttering plate is cleaned and oiled properly and then it
is fixed around the raft. At bottom starter, keep shuttering in position and at top and middle, cover blocks are fixed so that proper cover could be provided to reinforce. The cover blocks of 75mm & 40mm should also be placed at the top of the PCC (i.e., below the bottom bars of rafting) and above the top bars of the raft respectively.
iii. Levelling, Pouring and Compaction of the raft: The exact level of the raft is marked on the shuttering plate i.e.,300mm from the top of the PCC with the help of measuring tape and according to that level, the concrete is poured with the help of pump and pipe. At the end of pipe a flexible hose is provided so as to facilitate the concrete placing process. Vibrators are also used to give a good compaction. After pouring, the surface is made smooth with the help of planner.
INDRAJEET KUMAR, GNDEC 84
iv. Removal of the Formwork: The very next day, the shuttering of columns is removed.
v. Curing: After the removal of the formwork, the date of raft casted is
marked on it and its surface of concrete is covered with the help of hassion clothes. The surface of concrete is kept wet for next seven days by sprinkling water continuously or by ponding.

INFORMATION ABOUT THE PLANT AND EQUIPMENTS
The Plants, Equipment and the Vehicles used in this project are as below:
Concrete Mixer Plant: Mixer plant provides the facility to mix the various ingredients
of concrete in required proportions in the order to fulfil the quantities of concrete and without more lead distance. A concrete plant also known as a batch plant, is a device that combines various ingredients to form concrete. Some of these inputs include sand, water, aggregate, fly ash and cement and the Centre of the concrete batching plant is the mixture. These employ computer aided control to assist in fast, accurate measurement of input constituents or ingredients, as well as tie together the various parts and accessories for coordinate and safe operation. The Bituminous mixer plant is also there for the purpose of mixing the ingredients for flexible pavement layers i.e., Dense Bituminous Macadam and Surface Course.
Concrete Batching Plant Bituminous Hot Mix Plant
INDRAJEET KUMAR, GNDEC 115
Immersion or needle vibrators: This is perhaps the most commonly used vibrator.
It essentially consist of a steel tube called poker is connected to an electric motor or a diesel engine through a flexible tube. The normal radius of action of an immersion vibrator is 0.50 to 1.0m. However, it would be preferable to immerse the vibrator into concrete at intervals of not more than 600mm or 8 to 10 times the diameter of the poker.
Concrete Vibration Practices
Before starting a job, be sure to have a spare vibrator ready as a backup plan.
Don’t over vibrate concrete. Over vibration of concrete will lead to honeycombing instead of reducing it.
If you are pouring a low slump concrete, be sure not to under vibrate it, as honeycomb will also be a problem.
The vibrator shall be penetrated vertically to maximize its effects.
Do not over bend the vibrator, it will fail.
Concrete vibrator shall be hold at least 10 seconds into the concrete mix.
Every time the vibrator is inserted, its radius of action shall overlap from the previous one. Remember that every concrete vibrator has its own field of action. It is estimated that the field of action is four times the vibrator tip diameter.
The vibrator shall not be turned on outside of the concrete.
INDRAJEET KUMAR, GNDEC 116
Concrete Vibration Benefits: A good vibrator concrete will offer some benefits such as:
Have a higher compressive strength. A properly vibrated concrete will increase the bonding capacity between concrete and bars. Provide a better sealed concrete, it can order drier mixtures that require less cement. Offer greater durability. Bonding strength between layers of concrete will increase.
Bar Cutting machine: This machine is used for cutting the bar as per requirement in
large quantities. The machine can do the operation of cutting up to 12nn dia. And for bar having dia. Greater than 12mm then bar cutter is used.
INDRAJEET KUMAR, GNDEC 117
Bar Bending Machine: Bar Bending Machine is a semi-automatic, durable fast and
cost effective machine, used for bending reinforcement bars and various form of round bars. The automatic angle selection permits precise bend at a preset angle making it one step bending process for various forms of bends and stirrups. Bar Bending Machine is easy to use; the machine can be operated by a layman with minimal experience.
Transit mixer: It is used to transport the concrete from the place of production to the
site. Nominal capacity of transit mixture is 6m3 and total geometric volume is used for transporting the concrete from batching plant directly to the place where it is to be poured. It has a wide range of application especially for mass concreting works like high rise building construction and Dams and airports etc. The angle of drum is 150 and drum speed varies from 0-14 rpm. It optimized the position of spiral ensures maximum discharge of concrete. Weight of mixer is varies from 2500 kgs-3760 kgs. At our site there are 8 no of transit mixer which are used in different pocket.
INDRAJEET KUMAR, GNDEC 118
Excavator: Excavators are heavy construction equipment consisting of a boom, dipper,
bucket and cab on a rotating platform known as house. These are used for digging of trenches, holes, foundations, material handling, general gradding or landscaping etc.
Hydra (Cranes): These are used in taking off heavy objects and also to transport them
from one to other place at the site. A crane is a lifting machine that principally works with the use of pulley and cable. For the construction industries, cranes are valuable assets because they make working with heavy machinery and construction material easy. The invention of cranes made things easy for mankind because without loading, unloading and lifting had to be done by human hands, would consume more time, and the entire system was not efficient at all.
INDRAJEET KUMAR, GNDEC 119
Paver: A paver is a piece of construction equipment used to lay asphalt on road, bridges
and other such places. It lays the asphalt flat and provides minor compaction before it is compacted by roller.
Road Roller: A road roller is a compactor type engineering vehicle used to compact soil, gravel, asphalt in the construction of roads and foundation.
INDRAJEET KUMAR, GNDEC 120
Motor Grader: A grader is a machine with a long blade used to create a flat surface. Grader are commonly used in the construction and maintenance of dirt roads and gravel roads. In the construction of paved roads they are used to prepare the base course to create a wide flat surface for the asphalt to be placed on.
Water Tank Truck: These are used in highway construction for many purposes: For compaction of layers. For dust control. For curing the structure by spraying water etc.
INDRAJEET KUMAR, GNDEC 121
Loader: A loader is a type of tractor, usually wheeled, sometimes on tracks, that has a front-mounted square wide bucket connected to the end of two booms(arms) to scoop up loose material from the ground, such as dirt, sand or gravel and move it from one place to another without pushing the materials across the ground. It is also used to load and transport the coarse and fine aggregate to the hopper of the batching plant.
Dumper: A Dumper is a motor vehicle used to transport the WMM, CTSB, GSB, Surface course material etc. for the construction of pavement layers.
INDRAJEET KUMAR, GNDEC 122
Concrete Pump Vehicle (Boom Placer): A concrete pump is a machine used for transferring liquid concrete by pumping. It helps to cast the concrete structure to those places where there is not easily be accessible.
Crusher Machine: It is a machine used to crush the bigger stone to smaller size. These
smaller sizes of aggregates are used for constructional purpose. These crusher machine gives a size of 40mm, 20mm, 10mm of aggregates and dust.
INDRAJEET KUMAR, GNDEC 123
Kerb Laying Machine: Kerb laying machine are used to design the Kerb at the side end of the pavement. It consists of an L-type or I-type steel kerb mould, bucket and the sensor machine. The sensor machine is first adjusted to a proper level and then concrete is placed on the bucket with the help of Transit Mixer, the mould will automatically give the concrete as the shape of L-type or I-type kerb.

SAFETY MEASURES AND COMPAIGN
In Civil Engineering Construction project, accidents cannot be avoided. A mishap can happen
any time and unexpectedly during construction. About 80 percent of accidents are mainly
caused due to unsafe practices and shear negligence of the workers. Safety measures are
necessary to motivate and encourage the workers to work at the given site or industry without
any fear, tension or worry in mind about his security of life. Good safety measures are essential
to increase the output of work by generating safety free environment sense of contentment
among the workers.
Safety measure can be efficiently handled by properly educating and training workers about
the safe rules and their importance. It is the foremost duty of construction management to
appoint separate safety engineer to undertake safety measure and to prevent the occurrence of
accidents. The causes of accidents should be properly investigated and suitable measures
should be adopted to control these accidents. Thus, safety measures help in;
Reduced worker’s compensation claims.
Reduced expenses related to injuries and illnesses.
Reduced absenteeism and lower employee complaints.
Loss of life and increased productivity.
Improved employee morale and satisfaction.
Reduction of hidden cost and reduced insurance cost.
INDRAJEET KUMAR, GNDEC 125
Personal Safety
Wear protective equipment like safety helmet, safety jacket and safety footwear at
construction site.
Do not drink or take drugs while working.
Pay attention to personal hygiene.
Do not play in the workplace.
Report to your supervisor immediately if you notice any unsafe act.
Safty shoes during concreting
INDRAJEET KUMAR, GNDEC 126
Public Safety
Pay attention to public safety. Members of the public are often unaware of or do not understand
the work carried out on construction sites and the hazards involved.

INDRAJEET KUMAR, GNDEC 128
Safety Campaign
An organized movement launched by an enterprise or construction firm to advocate the
safety rules and regulations among its workers so to reduce the number of accidents is
termed as safety campaign. The following points should be kept in mind for launching
safety campaign.
The safety campaign must be placed under the charge of a very competent, experienced
and able manager, who may be termed as Safety Director.
The worker should be frequently addressed in a small group in their language or easy
accessible language to explain about safety rules.
INDRAJEET KUMAR, GNDEC 129
Awareness of safety to the labourers
INDRAJEET KUMAR, GNDEC 130
Do’s and Don’ts
Constructional work should be displayed in bold letter along with diagram on chart paper or
Borads.
Advertisement films, Documentaries and CD should be shown to the workers on off days,
explaining about the need for safety measures.
Training in first-aid should be provided to workers and supervisors for treating minor cuts and
injuries.
Safety journals should be brought about by the concerned management and distributed free of
cost to the workers.
INDRAJEET KUMAR, GNDEC 131
Overall Benefits of Training
Industrial Training is a class held at site to provide an enhanced understanding of the outside
working environment before the student graduation. Student of engineering and other fields
also take this practice. The main aim of this practice (industrial training) is to teach students
how to communicate professionally, to hone practical skills they learned, to upgrade the
theoretical knowledge, to improve their leadership skills and team playing skills etc. I have
acquired much knowledge in different areas. The experience gained will be helpful in
professional life ahead.
INDRAJEET KUMAR, GNDEC 132
Work ethics and related issues
The concept of the work ethics may be summarized as the overall quality in one’s behavior
towards appreciating the process of work flow and performing rather well on the job so that
this work will not be jeopardized in the long run. During my training program, I could say that
I have managed to do my side of the job description with a high spirit and enthusiasm so that
there was a smooth flow of activities both in the office and on construction site. Work ethics
involve such characteristics as honesty, responsibility, reliability, accountability and etc.
Punctuality is one of the major issues that could be raised when talking about work ethics and
on my side I tried to meet this criterion by going to the site in time so that there would not be
any delay on the activities planned for that day. The behavior that one shows towards his peers
and colleagues is also one manifestation of the concept of work ethics. Personally, I always
respected and gave priority to the employees of the company. Elements of work ethics that
worth mentioning are: - punctuality, honesty, reliability, office discipline, corporation and
responsibility.
INDRAJEET KUMAR, GNDEC 133
Conclusion
The entire period of Industrial Training has given me a good & important practical exposure
of construction work. At the end of the Industrial Training under Construction Company
APCO Infratech Pvt. Ltd, I feel myself better equipped and ready to face the field problems
related to Civil Engineering works. In these three months, I have learnt how to deal with
Authorities and workers under supervision and I have become familiar with the fact that the
field work is much difficult from theoretical knowledge. But until you don’t have the
theoretical knowledge, the practical work is very difficult to carry-out and understand.
Working with the experienced engineers has enhanced my technical skills to a great extent for
which I am grateful to them. Their professional approach towards work is appreciable.
The training has provided me with much needed field exposure to shape up my thinking in a
better way as a professional making me a lot more capable to face the challenges of life.
