Rationale:
Construction process-I is the pre-requisite of Construction process-II. Civil Engineering diploma graduates have to supervise construction of various project works involving use of various construction work based on quality. It does have physical parts with which we can make an appropriate shelter, service for the client to use it. So, to know how to build a construction project, one must know about Concrete, its types, properties, use of concrete, brick masonry, block masonry, different type of partition wall, drywall etc. This set of knowledge and skill to gives confidence to understand and construct a project. The students should have requisite knowledge regarding characteristics, uses and availability of various building item of work for construction purposes. In addition, specifications of various materials should also be known (BNBC/PWD) for effective quality control. To perform above task, it is essential that students should have knowledge of various item of work like concrete, masonry, block masonry, partition wall etc., and their constructional details. Therefore, the subject of Construction Process-I is very important for Civil Engineering diploma Graduates.

Diploma in Engineering holders have to use land survey for implement project. So, provide the student with the opportunity to acquire knowledge and skill to: Work with chain, plane table and Compass survey, Cadastral survey, record surveyed data and plotting map. Locate unknown points. Create the area using instruments, Calculate the area using different Methods.
