Engineering Drawing/ graphic tools

 Engineering Drawing/graphic tools

Drawing is the language of engineers. Thousands (1000) of words cannot describe a part correctly which a single drawing represents accurately. Ideas of engineers are recorded by preparing a drawing, and execution of work is also carried out on basics of drawings. Communication of engineers is done with the help of drawings. Like music, drawing is an universal language of the engineering world.


Drawing instruments are used to prepare drawings easily and accurately. The accuracy of drawings depends on the quality of instruments. Desirable accuracy is only possible with quality instruments. It is therefore necessary to obtain the instruments of superior quality.

This event represents the victory of good over evil and is remembered by lighting bonfires on the eve of Hol...

Indian standard code for civil engineering

What are IS Codes for Civil Engineering? IS codes, also known as Indian Standard codes, are a collection of standards formulated by the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) for diverse aspects of civil engineering. These codes offer guidelines, specifications, and safety prerequisites for construction materials, design parameters, testing techniques, and construction practices. They serve as a reference to guarantee consistency, safety, and excellence in civil engineering projects throughout India. List of IS Codes for Civil Engineering IS Code for Cement and Concrete IS 269:1989: Ordinary Portland cement, OPC 33 IS 383:1970: Coarse and Fine aggregates from natural sources for concrete IS 455:1989: Portland slag cement IS 456:2000: Code of practice for plain concrete and reinforced concrete (PCC and RCC) IS  code >>> read more
