Basic Civil Engineering

Basic civil engineering is designed to enrich the preliminary conceptual knowledge about civil engineering to the students of non-civil branches of engineering. The coverage includes materials for construction, building construction, basic surveying and other major topics like environmental engineering, geo-technical engineering, transport traffic & urban engineering, irrigation & water supply engineering and cad. Salient features quality and standard of materials along with cost effectiveness. Modern field procedures for surveying such as total station, gps and digital levels building services like air conditioning, fire protection systems, lifts, escalators etc. And also repair and maintenance of structures. A chapter on cad highlighting its importance in civil engineering.
