Geo-Technical Engineering Lab

The Geotechnical Engineering Laboratory is purposed to practically apply the basic theoretical concepts regarding the behavior of soil and its interaction with other structural materials. The Laboratory has been equipped with Computer controlled Triaxial Testing Machine, Shear box test apparatus, Vane shear apparatus, Consolidation Apparatus, Standard Penetration Test apparatus, Plate Load Test apparatus, Atterberg limit apparatus, specific gravity apparatus, standard sieves and sieve shaker set, Standard and Modified Proctor test apparatus, soil permeameters, Hydrometer test apparatus, Speedy Moisture tester and Laboratory Ovens. This laboratory satisfies the requirements of two courses, ‘Soil mechanics’ and ‘Geo-technical and Foundation Engineering’ as per approved scheme of study.
