Abstract:
Civil engineering is a multi-dimensional field which poses numerous challenges
on the team of designers and their implementors. Non availability of a specific
guidebook and lack of experience cause a lot of damage in terms of quality and time
period of the project. Being specific, Sapper officers of Corps of Engineers after
completing their Civil engineering degree from MCE when reaches back into unit are
usually employed as a Project officer. Due to lack of experience they face extreme
difficulties in producing quality and quick construction on site. There arises a need of
a handout for a freshly passed out civil engineering graduate which could help them
in implementation of small scale projects on ground without compromising on quality
and time. The handout was compiled after consulting famous civil engineering
handouts and further refined by the kind supervision of project Advisor and Co
Advisors. The handout consists of several details which could help engineer in quick
estimation, storage of materials, setting out, termite proofing, formwork and do`s and
don`ts during concreting. It would be very handful for freshly passed out graduates to
perform their tasks efficiently. The handout can be further improved in future by giving
the same project to students of next degree course and has the potential to be the
MCE Handout for Civil Engineers.
