P.S.V College of Engineering and Technology
CIVIL LAB
At our Civil Engineering Laboratory, we are committed to fostering a hands-on learning environment where students can apply theoretical knowledge to practical experiments, simulations, and projects. Our state-of-the-art facility is equipped with cutting-edge equipment and resources aimed at providing students with a comprehensive understanding of various civil engineering concepts and techniques.
Facilities
- Material Testing Equipment: Our laboratory is equipped with a wide range of material testing equipment including universal testing machines, compression testing machines, tensile testing machines, and impact testing machines. Students can explore the mechanical properties of materials such as concrete, steel, asphalt, and soil through hands-on experiments.
- Structural Analysis Setup: We have structural analysis setups that allow students to analyze the behavior of different structural elements under various loading conditions. This includes beam deflection tests, truss analysis setups, and models for studying the effects of live loads and dead loads on structures.
- Geotechnical Testing Instruments: Understanding soil mechanics is essential for civil engineers. Our laboratory features geotechnical testing instruments such as triaxial testing machines, consolidation testing apparatus, and direct shear testing machines for analyzing the engineering properties of soils.
- Surveying Instruments: Surveying is a fundamental aspect of civil engineering. We provide students with access to modern surveying instruments including total stations, theodolites, and GPS receivers. Students learn how to perform precise measurements, establish control points, and create accurate topographic maps.
