The important functions of a Civil Engineering technician includes the jobsof detailed surveying, plotting of survey data, preparation of survey maps and setting out works While froming the curriculum for the subject of surveying, stress has bneen given to the development of the skill in each type of survey like chain vurveying, compass surveying and levelling that the Civil Engineering diploma holder will normally be called upon to perform. While framing the curriculum for the subject of surveying, stress has been given to the development of the skill in each type of survey like chain surveying, compass surveying and levelling that the Civil Engineering diploma holder will normally be called upon to perform. Field work should be a selected one so that student can check his work and have an idea of the results the extent of error in the work done by him. As far as possible, the surveys don should be got plotted, as this will also reveal errors in the work and develop skill in plotting. |

Before imparting the instructions in the class room, visits to water works and sewage treatment plants can go a long way for increased motivation of students for learning in the class room. As the subject is of practical nature, lecture work be supplemented by field visits from time to time. Home assignments related to collection of information, phamplets and catalogues from hardware shop dealing water supply and sanitary fittings will be very helpful for the students. |
