Rational:

Civil Engineering diploma holders have to supervise construction of various types of civil
works involving use of various materials like stones, bricks, sand, cement, lime, tiles ,timber
and wood based products, paints and varnishes, metals and other miscellaneous materials,
The students should have requisite knowledge regarding characteristics, uses and availability
of various building material and skills introducing tests to determine suitability at materials
for various construction purposes. In addition, specifications of various materials should also
be known (PWD/BNBC) for effective quality control.
Learning Outcome (Theoretical):
After undergoing the subject, students will be able to
• State different construction materials and their properties.
• Interpret different type of stones.
• Mention different types of bricks and Blocks.
• Describe field and laboratory tests of stone, bricks, sand, and
cement.
• Illustrate different types of timber.
• Discuss different type of defects of timber.
• Explain paints/varnishes for various types of surfaces.
• State and explain different types of Modern building materials such
as ceramic, glass, metals and plastic, Tiles, Geo-Textile, Paint
Insulating materials and chemicals.

Learning Outcome (Practical):

After undergoing the subject, students will be able to
1. Identify the various types of stone.
2. Demonstrate laboratory test of stone.
3. Perform field test and laboratory test of Bricks.
4. Practice field test and laboratory test of Cement.
5. Observe field test and laboratory test of Sand.
