FACILITIES @MUJ

Geotechnical Engineering Lab

To provide hand on practice experience to conduct quality research and foster them to learn by doing methodology. Students learn to wide range of test from basic soil properties to advance tests related to soil strength and bearing capacity such as Triaxial Shear Test, Standard Penetration Test Apparatus etc.

Surveying Lab

The Surveying Laboratory has a wide variety of modern surveying equipment, such as GPS-based surveying equipment, total stations, Digital theodolites, and automatic levels for basic instructional and research purposes. Undergraduate students use the laboratory as an integral part of their surveying coursework and obtain any topographic information that can help their capstone design projects, such as highway design and land development.

Fluid Mechanics Lab

This lab facilitates a practical overview of the concepts of fluid flow, hydrostatics, hydraulics machinery and include calibration & operation of various types of flow measurement devices and along with comprehending basic and practical concept of flow evaluation of open channel flow/pipe flow/hydraulic machinery.Students could have hands-on experience on acquiring data and analysing the results of various fluid flow operations.
