 Detailed GPS Survey of Water Reservoir at Kalyan

All India Shri Shivaji Memorial Society’s College of Engineering, Pune-01, Unnat Bharat Abhiyan unit conducted a detailed water reservoir survey at Kalyan, Tal. Haveli, Dist. Pune on Thursday 21^st January, 2021 under presence of Sarpanch Shri. Rajesh Dimble, NSS programme officer Dr. N.N. Shejwal Sir, HOD Dr U.R. Awari, Prof. P.R. Modak, Prof. V.S, Chavan .

Topographical survey has been carried out as per the guidelines given by our expert. The Proprietor of the Trident Engineers, Shri. B.S. Holkar. We also have discussed how to increase catchment area by identifying the selection site criteria. To start our survey we used the Trimble GPS R10: to collect more accurate data faster and easier – no matter what the job or the environment, with the Trimble® R10 GNSS System. Built with powerful technologies integrated into a sleek design, this system provides surveyors with a powerful way to increase data collection productivity in every job, every day. The Trimble R10 GNSS receiver LEDs enable you to monitor satellite tracking, radio reception, data logging status, Wi-Fi status, and power. Bluetooth wireless technology provides cable-free communications between the receiver and controller. With the help of this apparatus we were able to measure the height, length, width and depth of the dam basin .The receiver that calculates all the data is fitted onto a specific bag which the person surveying wears on his back and has to walk and cover the required area to be surveyed. While the second receiver is set at a stationary point which sends the information from the first receiver to the satellite for accurate readings.For soil testing some quantity of soil was collected from the location, also we gathered data regarding the necessary points from the villagers like history of the reservoir, demand of water of the village.

Overall, the session was full of necessary information required to score good marks in GATE exam.The students of SE, TE and BE attended the session and took benefit from sir’s knowledge. Total 54 students attended the session

Webinar on “Importance of waterproofing”

On the 14th August2021, the Civil Engineering Department of AISSMS COE arranged a guest lecture by Mr. Jayant Khode (B.E. Civil , Consultant-cum-Trainer at Building Association of India, 25 yrs experience in Advance Construction Techniques). The students of the Civil Department attended this lecture with a curiosity to know what the guest is going to speak about. Firstly, Faculty Co-Ordinator, Mrs. M S Chiwande  addressed the students and welcomed the guest. Then Mr. Jayant Khode briefed the students about what is waterproofing, a why is it required “when water proofing is to be started?”  He gave information about importance of waterproofing consultants. He explained the various factors that come with starting a new project. He also made us aware of conventional and advanced method of waterproofing, how to control shrinkage cracks, w/c ratio, fiber reinforced concrete, injection grouting methods etc. Then he shared his experience and the problems he encountered. His presentation slides on his various projects are very interesting. Sir also advice that “If someone is keen to become waterproofing contractor, first he must work in that industry for 3-4 years and understand it, and then go for independent contractor” He also shared with the students the challenging situations he encountered and how he dealt them with proper knowledge and guidance.
