Department of Civil Engineering organized an Alumni talk on Recent trends in Civil Engineering and Cost effective solution. The event was addressed by the Alumni Mr. Hanumantha T, it was held in C-001, C Block, SKIT. Students came to know about the things happening in the Industry.
Surveying has played an important role in human technologies, especially in construction. Without surveying, human could not acquire a lot of useful information such as distance, bearing, elevation and so on. With this useful information, strategic and planned boundaries could be build.
This survey camp is intended to provide students of 2nd year to carry out field practical engineering survey using Total Station. As per the curriculum for the students of civil engineering they were been taken to kiavara chikkabalapura district for 7 days which consisted of different projects like New tank project, old tank project, highway alignment and water supply project and town planning.
Visit to a composite cost-effective building construction site. To get an understanding how the theoretical Knowledge is fitted in practice. To gain experience in building material science. Another most important thing there observed was the bricks used for construction is less in weight in which a single person can lift it easily. This weight less brick is made up of cement mixed with wood dust which gives good strength and less weight. The main reason to use this is to reduce the self weight or dead weight of the structure. The main reason for choosing this site particularly at malleshwaram was, the building under construction there is a composite (combination of steel and RCC) cost-effective building. By using composite concept, cost of the construction is reduced by 10% and time is saved by 30% compared to normal construction. Example use of steel C channels, steeled angle sections, nuts and bolts.
The Department of Civil Engineering organized a Site visit to SWM plant, the students of 4th and 6th semester were taken to the plant to get exposed to the practical knowledge of the procedure. The visit was Coordinated by Ramya A V and Vishwa Pavan S, Assistant professors, Department of Civil Engineering, SKIT. In order to get the practical knowledge about Solid waste management. Reducing the amount of materials in landfills and promoting conditions that make it possible to return to industries as raw material is one of the premises of PNRS, reducing environmental impacts and pollution risks and promoting the circular economy. Minimize the Production of Waste. Proper management practices help minimize the garbage and scraps that need handling. Nearly 120 tons of municipal waste is being converted to organic manure which is around 4mm size.
SKIT-CIVIL, MECHANICAL, ELECTRICAL DEPARTMENTS has organized an event on Recent Advancements and Career Opportunities in Construction, Real Estate, Infrastructure and Engineering Projects Management on Monday 16/05/2022. It was co-ordinated by Mr. Mohan K T, Asst prof. Dept of CVE, Mr. Rajesh S C, Asst prof. Dept of ME, Mr. Avinash S, Asst prof. Dept of EEE. The event was conducted in an Offline mode as per the COVID protocol at 10 AM in the Morning. Mr. Vishwa pavan S addressed the gathering and Prof. Prasad K V shared the knowledge of the Recent advancements related to Civil, Mechanical and Electrical Streams. 62 Participants in the session. The key idea was shared using PPT, related video and an audio. Mr. Vishwa Pavan S concluded the session by giving Vote of Thanks
