PROJECT REPORT
ON INDUSTRIAL TRAINING
UNDERGONE AT
th semester
and supervision during VIII PRACTICAL
TRAINING PROGRAMME
Today’s world demands competition, so along with having theoretical knowledge. It is very
important for an engineer to have practical knowledge as well. Everyone learns something to implement it at a
certain stage. Especially in the field of Civil Engineering, there is a vast difference in learning something
theoretically and practically, as compared to other fields. It is very necessary for a student to know, how to
implement the theoretical knowledge when he or she goes into the field.
First of all I am greatly thankful to Dr. H. M. Desai, The Vice Chancellor of Dharmsinh Desai
University, Nadiad , who introduced the system of the industrial training in the final semester of our college.
This gives us great opportunity to be familiar with the industrial scenario of the field. I am also thankful to our

2.1.1 INTRODUCTION
Formwork is the term given to either temporary or permanent molds into which
concrete or similar materials are poured. For safe concreting and for best quality, formwork is
major factor. If formwork is not closely spaced all slurry of wet concrete is coming outside and
the structure becomes honey-combed. So formwork should be rigid and closely fitted with
Other Materials: Screws, Nail, Tie rod, Shikanja
2.1.3 SPECIFICATIONS:
during placing and compaction of concrete, and shall be such as to prevent loss of slurry from the
concrete.
Care shall be taken to set all formwork in line, level and plumb so as to achieve neat,
Form shall be thoroughly cleaned off of all dust and loose materials before concreting.

2.2.1 COLUMN:
Definition:
A compression member whose effective length exceeds three times its lateral
Reinforcement:
Steel used is grade FE 500 and confirm to IS 1786-1985.
All reinforcement detailing is done as per IS 13920.
Stirrups of 8mm diameter are used.
An overlap of 18d is used for all column bars.
Overlap should not be provided
to all the bars at same height, but alternate bars are
overlapped at same height.
The overlap should be provided just above the slab.
Circular covers of 1.5” are placed at four corners.
There are two types of reinforcement in columns:
Vertical reinforcement
Vertical reinforcement is lapped to the previous bar and lap length is taken as per code IS 456
(50*d of steel bar). These lap bars are tied by binding wire.
Transverse reinforcement
Transverse reinforcement is in the form of stirrups.
Formwork:
Upper Floor:
If the column is on the external face of Slab then it is very easy to transfer the sides of
column by just making the column in the plumb & measuring the distance from the
column and checking it as per plan and fixing starter and then concreting is done.
Upper floor always beam will also joint or passing through the column and Beam-
Slab concreting complete then its start.
But if the column is not on the external face then the procedure is different.
For above case plumb-bob from the upper floor is suspended with the help of some
wooden plank kept outside the slab.
After that one man at next lower floor measures the distance from the column face to the
string then the same distance measured from is done so both the columns at lower floor
Now after marking the string is tied between all the external columns in the both directions
and the starter is fixed at right angle to it and then starter is casted but before casting the
starter the formwork is placed.
Now after marking the string is tied between all the external columns in the both directions
and the starter is fixed at right angle to it and then starter is casted but before casting the
starter the formwork is placed.
Concreting:
Column concrete is done by RMC material at site
From RMC Truck, concrete is transported to the place of columns where concreting
is to be carried out by means of material lift & iron baskets.
M25 grade of concrete is used for column.
Design Mix proportion used for making M25 grade concrete
Vibrator with 25 mm needle is used while concreting.
Check list:
Before Casting

2.2.2 BEAM – SLAB:
Beam and Slab activity will start and end at same time at site.
Beam
Member at which work as primarily a flexural member and resists load in vertical bending,
Slab
Member at which can usually carry uniform distributed load and form the floor or roof of the
Formwork:
Depending up on the length of each beam wooden planks of devdar is used as a beam
bottom & steel plates of 1 feet * 2 feet are used for a beam sides
After constructing the columns the bottom
level of each beam is marked on the columns
& wooden cap is fixed on the column.
Now beam bottom are placed on these caps between two columns & they are supported
by the wooden or steel props.
For the cantilever beams & long span beam they are kept at one inch above than the
required level at the end & at the middle respectively.
Wooden props are placed in criss-cross fashion to support the beam bottoms.
The sides of a beam are nailed in to wooden plank & wall plate, sufficient branching is
provided whenever necessary. Bracing at the top of the beam is necessary because if not
provided than the sides may open out from top.
Providing form work of the wall plates is fixed to the props.
Steel plates are fixed on these wall
plates steel forms of size 3’ * 2’ are fixed from
both the ends on their wall plates.
And props are nailed to
the wall a plates at the distance of 2’ using small wooden
pieces knows as “ LAFA”
The level of the slab is checked by level tube.
On top of shutters duct tapes are applied on the joints to ensure a leak proof arrangement.
The props are adjusted whenever necessary.
The slab is also leveled in a same way the
gaps between the steel plates should be checked
and it is sealed by small wooden pieces.
Reinforcement:
This work is done after form work of slab and beam is done.
All steel used is grade FE 500.
Reinforcement of beams is done first then work to slab.
Beam reinforcement is
tied up with column reinforcement and when completed is dropped
in the beam formwork.
The bars for top and bottom reinforcement are placed in the cage as per the detail given
by the structural engineer.
Top and bottom bars are tied to the stirrups at spacing as per the detail.
If the beam is going continuous over two or more supports then tension comes on the top
part of beam at the support, to resist this tension we provide steel in tension zone which is
called negative steel.
Slab reinforcement might be one way or two way or cantilever depending upon the span.
The reinforcement is cut according to the structural plan.
The spacing is marked on the slab and then bars are placed and tied with binding wire.
Concreting:
Concreting of beam and slab are done together with Trolly with Rail.
Tower Hoist will be used to concrete place at required height.
Before concreting starts the formwork is wetted on top surface.
Cement slurry is passed through the pipes which supply concrete before concreting starts.

proper finishing.
2.3.1 INTRODUCTION
Blockwork is the process of Block units bonded together with mortar. Typically, rows of
Blocks are called courses and are laid on top of one another to build up a structure such as a
Block wall. Block masonry is built with Blocks bonded together with mortar. For temporary
sheds mud mortar may be used but for all permanent buildings lime or cement mortars are
used.
1. Stretcher bond
2. Header bond
2. Sand
3. Cement
4. A.A.C Mortar
5. Water.
The Blocks do not absorb water not more than one-fifth of their weight after one hour.
The Blocks have maximum crushing strength of 3.5 to 4 N/m2
Block should not be break when it falls from 1m height.
2.3.4 PROCEDURE FOR LAYING OF BLOCKS:
2. First step is accurate location of door, opening and wall location is marked under guidance
3. Next step is to clean the area and spreading of water over the area.
6. Plumb bob marking is done on mortar layer and Blocks are laid down.
7. Frog is kept upper side to get desire strength. . Inside dimension is measured by engineer
8. After the completion of first layer one mason start from one end and other from opposite
end
of wall.
9. First layer of block is done by cement mortar then a.a.c mortar is used.
9. The verticality is checked regularly with plumb bob.
Block will not to crush at time of cutting and replace at site.
Don’t use the Blocks, which are under burnt, over burnt, irregular warped, cracked or
having harmful salts.
Check the verticality with help of plumb bob after every eight Blocks.
Wastage of the Blocks should be controlled.
Block will be joint to the specification in design and well bonded.
Keep the joints 10 mm. thicknesses.
Do not build wall more than 1.2 m should be laid in one day.
Plastering is the process of covering rough surface of wall, ceilings & other building
External plaster provides a protective cover against rain water and other harmful
pollutant gases.
Good plaster to provide require
thickness to specification and good material will be
used for primary requirement.
External plaster also reduces the effect of moisture and heat transfer.
It gives decorative effect.
It gives smooth surface in which dust and dirt cannot lodge.
Plastering is also done
to hide any faults and mistakes committed in Block
masonry and concreting.
It should possess good workability.
It also provides resistance against vermin and others pests.
It should be hard & durable.
Apply during all weather conditions.
It should be cheap.
It should effectively check penetration of moisture.
It should adhere to the background & should remain adhere during all variation in
2.4.2 PROCEDURE
First of all curing is
done of the Block work before 48hrs of starting of
the plastering work.
Plaster work isstarted after Block work and electric wire concealing work
is completed.
First spread
a plastic sheet under the area which is too plastered to minimize
the wastage.
Initially a layer oflean mixture of cement and water is applied on the surface
to make it rough.
Before plastering of beam and ceiling is started; to maintain a uniform thickness
of plaster all over, levels are marked with help of level pipes.
Than level pads are made of thickness of the plaster and about 100 to 150mm wide.
The length of this pad will be along the vertical height of the wall.
The c/c distance between the two level pads is around 1 to 1.5 meters.
The plumb of this level pad is checked correctly.
The thickness of inner plaster
is 12mm & it is done in two coats of 8mm of base coat
& 4mm of finishing coat.
The thickness of external plaster is
20mm, it is done in two coats of 12mm of base coat
& 8mm with smooth face finishing.
The thickness of external plaster is kept more, because of more weather effect.
First slightly thick layer of mortar is applied; later with help of wooden floats leveled
surface is obtained. Now with help of metal float the mortar layer is pressed till the
Pre plastering
Check whether the concealing work is finished or not.
Finish the work of applying chicken mesh wire at joints.
Hack the RCC work.
Mark the reference level with a level tube.

D. Formwork
F. Water
G. Equipment
A. Cement:
Material used should preferably from single source.
If used from different sources, then strength and other characteristics of material are
likely to change and therefore they should be used after proper evaluation and testing.
Test at site for cement is that, it should sink in the water, if it float means cement is not
of good quality along with should be smooth, if rough means cement is adulteries.
B. Fine Aggregate:
Fine aggregate (sand) should be transported from single source. Sand at site should
be coarser not so fine and should be free from moisture. Sand is test from source at
laboratory and should match the standard.
Test at site is to
pour the sand in the glass and sand should sediments at bottom means
no adulteration.
C. Steel:
Steel at site comes in the form of bhari. Total weight of ordered steel is checked.
Storage of steel is important it should
be stored at timber platform but at our site it
was stored in the open space at site.
D. Formwork:
F. Water:
It should be free from silt, organic matter, alkali and suspended impurities.
In general, water fit for drinking is used for mixing of concrete.
G. Equipment:
Equipment is properly taken care and maintain s the constructions equipments are
quite costly.
They are properly oiled and lubricant at equal time interval.

INTRODUCTION
DEFINITION OF SAFETY:-
Safety concerns have always been paramount in the construction industry. Jobsites are
complex environments, with workers from multiple trades interacting in challenging physical
environments. Recent efforts to improve safety appear to have some effect: The U.S. Bureau
of Labour Statistics (BLS) in September 2012 reported that fatal injuries in the private
construction sector and declined for five consecutive terms, with fatal injuries down between
2006 and 2011 by 46%.
Clearly improving safety remains one of the greatest challenges facing the construction
industry today.
While issue of improving safety has been an industry need for decades, this is a particularly
exciting time to examine how safety management practices are been implemented and are
perceived by the industry, as well as the benefits of a safety program. The construction
industry is changing in ways that have strong implications of site safety.
Some of the key trends that have implications for safety include the use of new and unfamiliar
products and technologies to achieve green goals on products, the use of BIM and
collaborative design, the proliferation of mobile tools onsite and increasing interest in the use
of prefabrication. All of these rising trends offer new opportunities to increase safety as well
as unique challenges that may necessitate new approaches to the development and delivery of
safety training. The use of increasingly multi functional mobile tools onsite, for example ,
offer new ways to bring safety information to job site workers, but they need to be deployed
effectively in ways that contribute to productivity & enhanced communication.
One key finding that can help spur greater investment in safety training is the productivity and
business benefits gained from making investments in strong safety management program,
from improved company reputation to improved project return on investment. Enjoying firm
leadership in the need for a strong safety program as a critical aspect of a firms
competitiveness can help increase in safety.
By providing clear portrait of existing safety practices that can serve as a benchmark for
companies, by demonstrating the gaps in safety adoption , and by exploring the opportunities
and challenges represented by important construction trends for increasing safety in
construction, this report offers all industry players insights into how how to continue to
improve this vital part of construction process.

CHAPTER 7: LABOUR & MATERIAL MANAGEMENT
7.1 GENERAL:
A project is composed of jobs, activities, functions or tasks that are related one to
other in some manner, and all of these should be completed in order to complete the
project. Every project has one specific purpose: it starts at some specific moment and it is
finished when its objective has been fulfilled. For completion of any project, two basic

LABOUR RATES
Materials management is a process for planning, executing and
controlling field and office activities in construction.
The goal of materials management is to insure that construction
materials are available at their point of use when needed.
Material cost accounts for nearly 50% to 60% of the cost of the project.
Materials management system attempts to insure that the right quality
and quantity of materials areappropriately selected, purchased,
delivered and handled on site in a
timely manner and at a reasonable cost.
Receiving and inspection.
Inventory control, storage and warehousing

9.1 REINFORCEMENT
TOR Steel is used on the site for its following features.
Higher Bond Strength
Better Fatigue Strength
Less Crack width due to high bond
Satisfactorily bend-ability
100 % weld-ability
Suitable for main and distributor steel
Saving in Cost may be achieved
Field Tests for quality of Steel Bars
The pitch length between the twist should be 8 to 12 times that of
nominal diameter of bar.
Steel should not be brittle in nature but
it should be soft for working. It
should break into pieces during bending.
Length of bar should be between 11 to 12 m
Field Tests for Binding Wire
It should be soft in working and should not be brittle
When tied it, it should not get loosened from its position.
It should not be corroded.
BBS are schedules which helps the site engineers and RCC Fitters to
give exact cutting length
of steel, required to each member. It means
slab, beam, column, etc.
This reduces wastage of steel with the help of bar bending schedule; site
engineer can calculate exact quantity of steel required for footing and
column. The counter check on
As the cost of Steel is rapidly increased, now-a-days
we can maintain
the economy in construction with the help of BBS.

are placed in the tensile zone which takes the tensile stresses to concrete is
Description:
Concrete is a product obtained artificially by hardening the mixture
of cement, sand, coarse aggregate and water in predetermined
proportion.
Concrete is very good in compression and weak in tension.
But it is apparent that while long bar is subjected
to compressive force
it may fail due to buckling, slenderness ratio.
Thus, combination of steel and concrete provides ideal as two materials are
used to take up stresses they suitable for such combination which is called
Reinforced Cement Concrete.

9.3 CONCRETING:
9.3.1 INTRODUCTION
1. Designing
3. Transporting
4. Placing
5. Compaction
6. Finishing
7. Curing
The batching of material use for producing concrete can be done in two ways.
Mixing of concrete is a very important step for achieving good final properties,
and one that can be quite difficult without the right equipment. This is one of
aggregate evenly throughout the cement paste, ensures that all of the cement has
Methods of mixing
1. Hand mixing
2. Machine mixing
At site, mixing is carried out mixer machine and in transit mixers for Ready mix
concrete.
9.3.3 TRANSPORTING:
Carrying concrete from the place of mixing to the place of delivery
is known as the transporting of concrete.
In case of Ready mix concrete it is transported by transit mixer. The
concrete is taken
to the place of pour by means of Tremie pipes of
diameter 150 mm.
As columns were filled with the concrete prepared at site in mixer
machine it is manually transported. But for higher floors hoist was used.
9.3.4 PLACING
After the reinforcement
and formwork completes the ready mix concrete
is ordered.
Before the arrival of transit mixer the arrangement
for placing is done.
Pump and Tremie pipes are fixed in position.
After the transit mixer arrives, concreting process can be started.
( placing & spreading of concrete)
Before placing the mix, cement slurry is passed through the pipe line for
buttering them.
After that concrete from the transit mixer is added to the pump
whichwill push the concrete through the pipeline to the placing
area.
During the process of placing the concrete some amount of the concrete
is
taken out from the transit mixer for the cube test and slump test.
9.3.5 COMPACTION/ VIBRATION:
Compaction of the concrete is the process adopted for expelling the
entrapped air from the concrete.
The entrapped air, if not removed completely, considerably
reduces the strength of concrete.
At site, compaction is done by needle vibrator.
9.3.6 FINISHING:
For concrete floors and pavements, the appearance, smoothness,
and durability of the surface is particularly important.
Finishing refers to any final treatment of the concrete
surface after it has
been consolidated to achieve the desired properties.
( fig. finishing of concrete)
9.3.7 CURING:
The final setting time of concrete is not more than 300 minutes, so after
12 hours
concrete gains its final setting. Therefore we can remove form
work.
At site even higher water / cement ratio is used, since the concrete is open
to atmosphere, the water used in concrete evaporates and water available in
the concrete will not be
sufficient for effective hydration to take place particularly at top surface.
So curing is major activity for keeping the concretemoist and warm
enough so that the hydration of cement can continue.
One or a combination of the following curing methods can be adopted
depending on site conditions, availability of curing materials, type of
job, economics etc.
At our site water curing is done by spraying of water and by wet
covering for the period of 7 days from the date of casting concrete.
