VISIT OF THE CONSTRUCTION SITE
CONSTRUCTION SITE NAMENew lecture theatres
LOCATIONUniversity of Engineering & Technology, Lahore
INTRODUCTION TO SITEUniversity of engineering & technology is one of the oldest engineering Institution of Pakistan.
It was founded in 1921 and since thenit has been producing hundreds & thousands Engineers
every year & serving the nation. As the years passed, the no. of students of the university also
kept on increasing so there has always been a need to construct newer buildings to facilitate
students.
The motive behind the construction ofnew lecture theatre is the same as mentioned above .it
is a multi storey structure which will be used for educational purposes in the future .when Ivisited the construction site, According to my idea About 60% of the construction work has
been completed on the site
RESOURCES ON THE SITE
When we visited the site there were a number of recourses .some of them are as follows

PART 2
SITUATION
We have to establish the water sewerages system in a sub division of Karachi, & we need to tell
about the projects as well as the activities involved in this program.Moreover we need to tell
about the hurdles faced in a particular situation which includes
A motorway on the right side A river flowing on the left side A sub Division Industrial area
PROJECTS INVOLVED IN THE PROGRAM ARE
Construction of a water reservoir inground Construction of Water storing tanks
Lying of the water line under the groundACTIVITIES
For the construction ofground water reservoir, we need to do the following activitiesInvestigate the soil type present at the site
1. Excavation of the soil2. Determination ofground water table3. Providence of resistance to the walls of the reservoir For the construction of storage tanks1. Preparation of P.C.C for the its use inFoundation2. Brickwork in sub & super structure3. Cutting, bending & fixing of steel4. Formation of beams & columns For the lying of water supply line1. Excavation of the soil2. Lying of water supply line3. Leveling the water supply line4. Joining of the water supply line5. Back filling of the soil
CONSTRAINTS Due to the river, the ground water table will be increased in the area so the lying of the
supply line will be quite difficult
There will be a lot of hindrance due to the people passing through the construction site
