JT-CEE Syllabus
Strength of materials:
Stresses, strains, Hooke's law & elastic constants, stress-strain relationship; Types of loads and
different support conditions, determination of SF and BM in simple beams under different loading
systems; Calculating geometrical properties - centroid, moment of inertia for sections of different
shapes; Simple beam bending theory, bending stress distribution in beams, columns-crippling
load, combined stresses
Different construction materials (stone, brick, cement, steel rebar) and their physical properties;
preparation of mortar and cement concrete. Laboratory test setup and procedure for evaluating
the physical properties: tensile strength on mild steel bars, bending test on simply supported
beams, initial and final setting time of cement, fineness, normal consistency, soundness of
cement, workability of concrete, compression tests on bricks and cubes, determination of
flakiness index, fineness modulus of fine and coarse aggregate and water absorption in bricks &
pressed tiles.
Buildings - stone masonry & brick masonry, different types of foundations, floors and roofs
Surveying:
Plane surveying, Chain, compass, levelling, theodolite surveying, GPS and Total station
Classification of soils, index properties, permeability, types of footings, laboratory & field tests -
voids ratio, porosity of sand, determination of liquid limit, plastic limit, bulk density and specific
gravity of fine and coarse aggregates, proctor's compaction test on clay, Direct shear test on sand
and field density of soil
Highway Engineering:
Analysis and design simple RCC elements like singly / doubly reinforced rectangular beams for
shear and flexure by limit state method; Design One way/ Two way slabs and Staircases by limit
state method; Design Axially loaded Columns and Footings by limit state method; Design simple
Steel members like Laterally supported Beams, Tension members, Compression members and
Welded connections by working stress/ limit state method.
Environmental Engineering:
Water supply-demand requirements; quality of water, testing of water - collection of water sample
- physical, chemical, bacteriological tests. Determination of total & settleable solids present,
turbidity, pH value in the given sample of water. Standards of drinking water. Water treatment –
primary and secondary treatment, Sewage treatment –primary, secondary and tertiary treatment
