Knowledge of the behaviour of ingredients of concrete is
CO1 PO1 LOW essential to determine the properties of concrete by applying
the knowledge of mathematics, science, engineering
fundamentals.
Selection of suitable type of admixtures in concreting is done
based on its properties and it results in a concrete which
satisfies the specified needs like strength, workability,
CO2 PO3 HIGH
economy etc. with appropriate consideration for the public
health and safety, and the cultural, societal, and
environmental considerations.
Proportioning of the ingredients of concrete should be
designed in such a way that the concrete produced is
economical and is of required strength, durability and
CO3 PO3 HIGH
workability which meet the specified needs with appropriate
consideration for the public health and safety, and the
cultural, societal, and environmental considerations.
Determination of properties of fresh and hardened concrete
involves the use of research-based knowledge and research
CO4 PO4 MEDIUM methods including design of experiments, analysis and
interpretation of data, and synthesis of the information to
know the behaviour of concrete.
Non-destructive testing of concrete involves carrying out of
investigations using research based knowledge and research
methods including design of experiments, analysis and
CO5 PO4 MEDIUM interpretation of data, and synthesis of the information to
determine the compressive strength of an existing building,
corrosion of reinforcement etc. and to take corrective
measures.

Special concretes and special concreting methods to be

the resulting concrete satisfies the need of a sustainable
environment.

Sl No DESCRIPTION
ACTIONS
1 Fifth semester students are not exposed to subjects like
transportation engineering and environmental Engineering. So
they cannot select a design project related to those subjects
2 Students are not supposed to guide by the faculty members to
select a topic in design project. Hence it is very difficult for
them if they are selecting a topic which is slightly different from
what they have studied.
