I. RATIONALE
In the construction of any civil engineering structure, estimating, costing, and valuation are the fundamental
processes that provide valuable insights and support to project planning, budgeting, resource allocation, decision-
making, contract negotiation, compliance, performance evaluation, and investment analysis. Today being the era of
technology, a provision is also required to be made to implement the above mentioned processes through the use of
the various software for achieving the speedy determination of quantities with inbuilt accuracy and precision. This
course is specifically designed to develop the basic competencies among the learners to discharge their duties in the
field with high efficiency and effectiveness to mitigate risks in projects and thereby to achieve the strategic
objective.
CO1 - Use the relevant modes of measurements for the given item of work.
CO2 - Prepare approximate estimate of a civil engineering works.
CO3 - Prepare detailed estimate of a civil engineering works.
CO4 - Fix the rate for the given item of work using relevant rate analysis technique.
CO5 - Conduct the process of the valuation for the specified purpose.
1. FA-TH represents average of two class tests of 30 marks each conducted during the semester.
2. If candidate is not securing minimum passing marks in FA-PR of any course then the candidate shall be
declared as "Detained" in that semester.
3. If candidate is not securing minimum passing marks in SLA of any course then the candidate shall be
declared as fail and will have to repeat and resubmit SLA work.
4. Notional Learning hours for the semester are (CL+LL+TL+SL)hrs.* 15 Weeks
5. 1 credit is equivalent to 30 Notional hrs.
6. * Self learning hours shall not be reflected in the Time Table.
7. * Self learning includes micro project / assignment / other activities.
Micro project
Enlist the minimum ten salient provisions made in IS:1200 with special reference to load bearing structure.
Enlist the minimum ten salient provisions made in IS:1200 with special reference to Framed structure.
Prepare detailed estimate of minimum one load bearing structure using available open source software.
Rate analysis by analyzing no of labor required for different items of civil works such as 10 cu. m excavation,
cement concrete in foundation, Bricks work, rubble stone masonry works. Etc. and 100 m2 12mm thick plastering, 20
mm thick Damp proof course, cement pointing, white washing etc.
Collect the rebar reinforcement drawings of minimum one building and interpret the drawings with report.
Prepare rate analysis of Painting work for OBD, Plastic emulsion, Oil paint, luster paint having minimum 150 m2
area.
Prepare approximate estimate of minimum one residential building.
Prepare valuation report of minimum one residential building.
Workout quantities of cement, sand and bricks for 30 m3,40m3.50m3,60m3 in cement mortar 1:6
Note :
Above is just a suggestive list of microprojects and assignments; faculty must prepare their own bank of
microprojects, assignments, and activities in a similar way.
The faculty must allocate judicial mix of tasks, considering the weaknesses and / strengths of the student in
acquiring the desired skills.
If a microproject is assigned, it is expected to be completed as a group activity.
SLA marks shall be awarded as per the continuous assessment record.
For courses with no SLA component the list of suggestive microprojects / assignments/ activities are
optional, faculty may encourage students to perform these tasks for enhanced learning experiences.
If the course does not have associated SLA component, above suggestive listings is applicable to Tutorials
and maybe considered for FA-PR evaluations.
X. ASSESSMENT METHODOLOGIES/TOOLS
Two-unit tests of 30 marks will be conducted and average of two-unit test considered.for formative assessment of
exercises writing 50 marks.each exercises will be assessed considering appropriate % weightage to process and
product and other instructions of assessments.
Term Work, Practical Exam, Oral and Written End semester Exam
Teachers are requested to check the creative common license status/financial implications of the suggested
online educational resources before use by the students
