INTRODUCTION

The main objective of industrial visit is to provide exposure in practical

engineering field. The industrial visits are meant to bridge the gap between practical learning
and practical application of theory.
The basic idea of industrial visit is to equip us with the local field
practices, thumb rules used by the experts, in having contact with experienced brains of the
field. The constructional practices followed, the flaws in practice the dos and donts in
practices are all the things one can gain from industrial visits.

CONCLUSION
It was a worthy and enriching experience that we had during industrial training. The entire
training was very engaging, interesting and challenging. We could also witness construction
practices based on process manual. We are able to gain a new insights and a more
comprehensive understanding about the real industry, actual working conditions and practice.
This training also helped me acquaint with the actual difficulties a civil engineer has to face.
