2. Outline
 Industrial summer training at near j k colony, Kanpur from 17 june,2018 to 16
July 2018 under project on Military Engineering Services (MES).
 An amazing experience as I got to see and performs many test to check
quality of construction materials.

3. Contents
 Introduction of type of building.
 Site plan.
 Site clearance & excavation.
 Layout with grid line.
 PCC work.
 Foundation.
 Field tests of materials.

4. Introduction of type of building
Residential building
In such building sleeping
accommodation is provided, it includes
the livings room, bed room, kitchen,
toilet and bathroom.
It may be single story building or
apartments.

5. Site plan
Site plan divided into 5
parts.
1. OR’s block 10
2. OR’s block 14
3. OR’s block 14
4. NC’s block
5. JCO block

6. Site clearance & excavation
Site clearance
 It involves removing
hazardous substance from
site, as well as leveling &
preparing land for any
planned construction.

7. Excavation
It’s the process of moving
earth, rock or other materials
with the help of tools,
equipment and it’s a first step
of foundation.

8. Layout with grid line
Grid lines used for making layout in field and it’s also help to find
boundary line, center & end point of column.
For making layout of any structure at construction site firstly assume
a temporary bench mark to start the layout.

Column 450x300mm

10. PCC work
Plain cement concrete (PCC)
is used to provide impervious
bed of RCC in foundation. In
PCC we generally use
Portland cement as bonding
material.

11. Foundation
Mat or raft foundation
 Carrying heavy loads of
structure.
 Cover entire area under the
structure.
 Minimize differential
settlement.
 Load transmitted underlying
soil
of the structure.

12. Field tests of materials
During construction process of any structure various field
test are conducted to check quality of construction
material.
Construction materials –
 Brick
 Cement
 Aggregate

13. Field tests of Brick
 Water absorption
 visual inspection
 Hardness
 Soundness
 Dimension tolerance

14. Field tests of cement
 Color test
 Presence of lumps
 Cement adulteration
 Temperature
 Date of packing

15. Field tests of aggregate
 Sieve analysis
 Fineness of modulus of aggregate
