ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

2 | Page
The successful completion of any task would be incomplete without proper
suggestions, guidance and environment. A combination of these three factors acts as a
backbone of our internship Project “CONSTRUCTION OF BUILDING”.

We are very much thankful to Dr.K.Srinivas, Principal of R.V.R & JC College of

Engineering, Guntur for having allowed delivering this internship Project.

We express our sincere thanks to Dr.A.Srinivasa Prasad, Professor and Head of the
Department of Civil Engineering, for his encouragement and support to carry out this
internship project successfully.

Finally, we express our sincere thanks to all the Teaching and Non-teaching staff of
the Civil Department who have contributed to the successful completion of the
internship.

 COMPANY INFORMATION

The current project is the construction of 2 stored residential building

by Sri Srinivasa constructions. The structural design for the building was given by
prof M.Rama Rao (M-Tech) Structural Engineer.
Total Area of the project: 20000 Sq feet(apporx)
Structural elements of the project are:
▪ Foundation
▪ Columns
▪ Plinth beam
▪ Walls
▪ Earthwork
▪ Beams
▪ Slabs
▪ Flooring
▪ Plastering
▪ curing

1.EXCAVATION

4 | Page
Work procedure for excavation at construction site involves understanding
of centre line and excavation drawings, setting out of plan on ground,
excavation of soil and removal of excess soil. Quality checks such as
recording ground level and marking of reference points should be done.
Excavation is the process of moving earth, rock or other materials with tools,
equipment or explosives. It also includes trenching, wall shafts, tunnelling
and underground. It is the preliminary activity of the construction project.

 2. COLUMNS
A column or pillar in architecture and structural engineering is a
structural element that transmits, through compression, the weight of
the structure above to other structural elements below. In other words,
a column is a compression member. the term column applies especially
to a large round support (the shaft of the column) with a capital and a
base or pedestal, which is made of stone, or appearing to be so. A small
wooden or metal support is typically called a post. Supports with a
rectangular or other non-round section are usually called piers.

For the purpose of wind or earthquake engineering, columns may be

designed to resist lateral forces. Other compression members are
often termed "columns" because of the similar stress conditions.
Columns are frequently used to support beams or arches on which the
upper parts of walls or ceilings rest.

▪ Total number of columns in each floor are 15.

▪ Columns of two different sizes (9’’ x12” ,9”x15”) are used for construction

3.Beam:

A beam is a structural element that primarily resists loads applied

laterally to the beam's axis (an element designed to carry primarily
axial load would be a strut or column). Its mode of deflection is
primarily by bending. the loads applied to the beam result in reaction

 forces at the beam's support points. The total effect of all the forces
acting on the beam is to produce shear forces and bending moments
within the beams, that in turn induce internal stresses, strains and
deflections of the beam. Beams are characterized by their manner of
support, profile (shape of cross-section), equilibrium conditions,
length, and their material.

Beams are traditionally descriptions of building or civil engineering

structural elements, where the beams are horizontal and carry vertical
loads.

▪ Three different sizes of beams (9’’x12”, 9”x15”) are used.

▪ In 9’’x12’’ size beam, 16 mm dia main bars are used.

▪ In 9’’x15’’ size beams ,20 mm dia main bars are used

▪ 8mm dia Stirrups are placed at 6’’ c/c spacing.

▪ Extra bars of dia 20mm and 25mm are provided for additional strength.

▪ In beam shuttering, M.S plates, jacks, wooden strips, side plates, trusses
are used.

4. SLAB
Slabs is a structural element manufactured from concrete
constructed to produce flat surfaces, usually horizontal, in building
floors, roofs. The slab is usually several inches hefty & is
additionally supported by walls, by concrete beams usually cast
monolithically with the slab, by steel beams, by columns, anchored
by the bottom.

 ▪ The type of slab is two-way slab.

▪ Two types of slabs are placed (normal slab and sunken slab)

▪ Sunken slabs are placed at 1 feet below the normal slab.

▪ Slab thickness is of 5”.

▪ Concrete of grade M25 is used.

5.FLOORING
Flooring is the general term for a permanent covering of a floor, or for
the work of installing such a floor covering. Floor covering is a term to
generically describe any finish material applied over a floor structure to
provide a walking surface. Both terms are used interchangeably but floor
covering refers more to loose-laid materials.
Materials almost always classified as flooring include carpet, laminate, tile, and
vinyl.

 6.CONCLUSION

I hereby conclude that the internship I had done at Sri Srinivasa

constructions had made me learnt so many construction works
which helps me to learn more in detail about Residential Buildings.
Civil engineer interns work to improve their knowledge about
construction and its relevant works. An internship provides them
insight into various aspects of construction and how things run at the
site. students like us will have an opportunity to enhance those skills,

9 | Page
obtain the perspective of a work environment and benefit from a
mentor or supervisor's experience and advice.

The main objective of the internship is to provide an opportunity to

undergraduate to identify, observe and practice how civil engineering
is applicable and the real site it is not only to get experience on
technical practices but also to observe management practices and to
interact with the field workers. The only chance that an undergraduate
has to have this experience in the internship period.
