 Description Of Materials And
Equipment
material used :
1.Cement : Cement is a binding material it has good cohesive and
adhesive properties. At site, 53 grade was used and the
weight of each cement bag was 50kg. Cement used at site
was ‘PCC’. Specification are used from IS269-1976.
2. Sand : Source of sand was Vainganga River Desaiganj
(Warsa).
3. Water : The source of water was bore well constructed on
site
4. Shuttering : The Shuttering used is steel Shuttering.
8
It was well durable. It was easy to handle and
removal.
Equipment's used
1. Needle Vibrater: This is used for compaction of
concrete after casting of concrete.

2. Mobile concrete Placer : This is used for placing

concrete to the site of casting from mobile concrete
mixer.

3.Mobile concrete Mixer : This is used for

transportation of concrete from Batch Mixer to the site
of casting .

4. Roller: This is used for compaction of soil beside the

9
abutment .
4. Work experience
Day 1
Visited to office and submitted permission letter from
college to the department. Permission taken to do industrial case
study under the guidance of departmental engineer
Day 2
Visited to the site.The day was of payment day the work
was closed for the day .

Aggregate : Water absorption test

Day 8
Filling of earthwork were going on site beside downstream
side wing wall by roller n power excavator .Due to rain no concreting
were done . 12
Day 9

Day 15 & Day 16
within this 2 days casting of concrete in pier of 1 meter lift and
cubes were taken, Gunny bag curing were provided to the pier and
quality control engineer had visited to the site to check the structure
and in-situ test results

Day 17
The concreting of abutment was observed needle vibrator
were used for the compaction of concrete the concrete were
transported by the transit mixer and directly placed into the formwork

Day 18
Due to the rainy season the work were closing the excavation
of stream were started for flow of water which was filled for work .
Pipes were provided for air release from sand filling in sub-structure
.

5. Observations and discussions
1. I found on site that the some extra adjustment has to be done
to carry out work which is not found in the books, which
come from experience only.

2. This case study provides an idea about the management of

work

3. How to execute the work as per drawings

4. As a site engineer one should know the technical as well as

labours language also .
