The important functions of a diploma in civil engineering includes the jobs of detailed surveying, plotting of survey data, preparation of survey maps and setting out works. Field work should be a selected one so that student can check his work and have an idea of the results the extent of error in the work done by him. As far as possible, the surveys done should be got plotted, as this will also reveal errors in the work and develop skill in plotting.

The understanding of the structure, physical and mechanical properties and behaviour of engineering materials is at the very core of engineering design. A command of this knowledge is essential for all civil engineers. This laboratory provides a hands-on experience with the testing and evaluation of civil engineering materials, including steel, wood ,cements, Aluminium, Brass and Brick.

The application of Computer knowledge is essential for the students of all disciplines of Engineering in addition to their respective branch of study. The Computer Application Practical course facilitates the necessary knowledge and skills regarding creating, working and maintaining the documents and presentation of documents with audio visual effects in a computer and produces necessary skills in E- Learning and Chatting tools.

Computers play a very vital role in present day life, more so, in all the professional life of engineering. In order to enable the students use the computers effectively in drafting, this course offers Computer Aided Drafting of various drawings in civil engineering.

Diploma holders in Civil Engineering are supposed to supervise construction of buildings. To perform above task, it is essential that students should have knowledge of various sub components of buildings like foundations, walls, roofs, stair cases, floors etc., and their constructional details. Therefore, the subject of Construction Practice is very important for Civil Engineering diploma holders.

Hydraulics is a technology of applied science using engineering, chemistry, and other sciences involving the mechanical properties and use of liquids. At a very basic level, hydraulics is the liquid counterpart of pneumatics, which concerns gases. Fluid mechanics provides the theoretical foundation for hydraulics, which focuses on the applied engineering using the properties of fluids.
