PREFACE
Project give an opportunity to implement the principles and knowledge practically. The
experience that one gets wonderful because what one studies in books is different from what
one fact in the field.
A Project helps a student in getting acquainted with the manner in which his knowledge is
being practically used and this is normally different from what one has learnt from books.
Hence, when one switches from the process of learning to that of implementation his
knowledge, he finds an abrupt change. This is exactly why project during the B.Tech.
Curriculum becomes all the more important.
Imagine large drives used in Site, they are really effective and helpful. Also imagine of we
could control different machine and equipment at site or industry by using another device.
My training included these basic and some important engineering needs in an industry.
This report is detail describe of OVERVIEW OF HINDUSTAN CONSTRUCTION CO. LTD.

Geology of Site The rock is predominantly Quartzite sand stone generally hard and compact with
interbedded shale seams and clay strain. The site investigation of the foundation
rock carried out by drilling and coring has sand stone to a depth of over 6m and
drilling core in rock upto of 3m below ground surface.

CIVIL ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT
Grouting Consalidation Grouting is the process of filling the cracks.
Holes in Grouting- There are two types of holes
i. Primary Hole
ii. Secondary Hole
iii. Tertiary Hole
Pattern of Primary Hole at 6m distance from one hole to another hole.
Small holes are Secondary Hole at 3m distance from big hole to small hole.
Cold Drilling- 100m depth.
Instruments Used in Grouting-
i. Grouting Pump
ii. Pressure Gauge
iii. Water Meter
iv. Rubber Packer (Diameter of rubber=110mm.)
v. Agitator
vi. Mixing Drum.
Applied Pressure- At 0m to 3m height=1Kg/m3
At 3m to 9m height=2.5Kg/m3
Plugging-It is the process to fill the hole with sand and cement in ratio of (1:2).
Grout Mix- Grout Mix is the mix of sand and cement in ratio of
(1:2,1:15,1:10,1:5,1:.05,etc.).
NOTE- “ Before Grouting, it is mondatry to find out the Lussion Value by conducting the Perculation Test, based
on L.V. the Grout Mix can be decided.
Page 17
VIVEKANANDA INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY (EAST) .
CIVIL ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT
Q. Why Grouting is done?
Ans. To consolidate underground rock surface. In underground rock surface there
may be different type of cracks and faults. Which causes sub surface flow of
water. To fill up these cracks “Grouting” is carried out.
Purpose of Grouting-
To fill up the sub surface voids in between rock layers. If it is not done
seepage of water continue which will cause the damage of water proofing surface
as well as planter reinforcement.
Procedure of Grouting-
1. Primary Holes-
a) Spacing of holes- 6m c/c.
b) Depth of holes- 9m(from existing ground level)
c) 1st Stage- 1] Perculation from 3 to 9m depth.
2] Perculation from 0 to 3m depth.
d) 2nd Stage- 1] If there cracks or voids or faults is there a certain
loosen value will be find.
2] Grout the hole from 3 to 9m depth as required corresponding to loosen value.
3] When computed plug the hole from 3 to 9m.
4] Now process the perculation from 0 to 3m depth.
5] Grout and plug the hole as loosen value obtain.
e) Grout and plug all the primary holes.

CIVIL ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT
2. Then go for Secondary Holes- The secondary hole will be in between
primary holes. The grouting and pluging will be same as primary holes.
3. If loosen value is there in secondary holes we have to proceed for
tertiary holes.

CONCLUSION
On concluding the training report , I would like to say that I got a good
overview of HINDUSTAN CONSTRUCTION CO. LTD. I learn about the
practical knowledge at site. I learnt about many instrument at the site. I
think this training will come good in future use. Apart from my area of
project I also got an idea that “ How to do work at construction site”,
which is important in my future.
