INTRODUCTION

Public Works Department is engaged in planning, designing,


construction and maintenance of government assets in the field of built
environment and infrastructure development. The Public Works
Department was a government department that was responsible for
buildings, roads, irrigation and railways. Public Works in India, such as the
construction of roads, water tank, etc. was originally conducted by the
military. It is headed by the Director General (DG) who is also the
Principal Technical Advisor to the Government of India. The regions and
sub-regions are headed by Special DGs and Additional DGs respectively,
while the zones in all state capitals (except a few) are headed by Chief
Engineers.

Public Works Department has a glorious history in the state of over


150 years. It is mainly entrusted with the construction and maintenance of
roads, bridges, and government buildings. The department also acts as the
technical
advisor to the State Government. Initially, the works pertaining to Irrigation,
Roads, and Bridges as well as constructions cum maintenance of Public
Buildings were entrusted to this department. In the year 1960 a separate
"State of Maharashtra" came into existence and thereafter this department
by way of reorganization divided into two distinct Departments viz.
Irrigation Department & Building and Communication Department. In the
year 1980, the housing function was looked after by yet another separate
Department and existing Public Works Department continued to get
established.

Introduction of Structure

• A bridge is a structure built to span a physical obstacle (such as a body of


water, valley, road, or railway) without blocking the way underneath.

• It is constructed for the purpose of providing passage over the obstacle,


which is usually something that is otherwise difficult or impossible to cross.

• There are many different designs of bridges, each serving a particular


purpose and applicable to different situations.

• Designs of bridges vary depending on factors such as the function of the


bridge, the nature of the terrain where the bridge is constructed and
anchored, and the material used to make it, and the funds available to build
it.

• The estimated life of bridges varies between 25 and 80 years depending on


location and material. However, bridges may age hundred years with proper
maintenance and rehabilitation. Bridge maintenance consisting of a
combination of structural health monitoring and testing.

3) Laying of PCC Bed: -

The mixture of cement, fine aggregate (sand) and coarse aggregate are
generally called plain cement concrete (PCC). Before starting any R.C.C or
masonry work directly on the excavated soil, PCC is done to form a levelled
surface and to avoid laying concrete on soil directly so as to avoid mixing/
with soil and also to prevent soil extracting water from PCC thereby
weakening it.

In PCC (plain cement concrete) we use M10 grade of concrete. Here


reinforcement is not provided.

INTERNSHIP REPORT ON PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT

8) Construction of WBM for Approaches: -


It consists of raw materials like
clean and crushed aggregates, screening and binding materials
The aggregates are mechanically interlocked by rolling and the screenings
and binding materials, are used to fill the voids in the aggregates. All the
materials are mixed with water.

The mixture of such materials is laid on a well-prepared subgrade, sub-


base, or on existing road pavement. Water bound macadam can be used as a
sub-base, base course, or surface course. The thickness of each layer in
WBM road ranges between 7.5 cm to 10 cm.

1. Preparing the foundation for receiving the WBM course: -

The foundation supporting the layer of WBM is either the subgrade or sub-
base course. It is prepared to the required grade and camber. It is cleaned of
all the dust particles and loose materials present on it. The foundation,
supporting the WBM, should be dried.

2. Spreading coarse aggregates

The aggregates should be evenly and uniformly spread on the prepared


base in the required amount. They may be spread manually or mechanically

3. Rolling

Once the aggregates are spread evenly, the rollers are deployed to carry out
the process of compaction. The rollers used shall be of 6 to 10 tonnes
capacity. The compaction of aggregates should start from the edge of the
surface. The aggregates are compacted partially then the compaction is
paused to permit the application of screenings

INTERNSHIP REPORT ON PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT

5. Application of screenings

After partial compaction of aggregates, screenings are applied so that the


voids in the aggregates are filled completely. They are applied gradually
over the surface in three or more applications. Again, after applying
screenings, dry rolling is resumed so that they are completely filled in the
voids.

6. Sprinkling and grouting

The surface is sprinkled with water after applying the screenings. The
surface is then swept and rolled so that the voids are completely filled. If any
voids are left empty, additional screenings may be applied.

INTERNSHIP REPORT ON PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT

Introduction of Structure

Meaning of Culvert: -

• A small bridge may be of 3 to 4 spans with the length of span not more
than 3 m is known as culvert.
• In case of highway where culverts are constructed to cross the small
distributary etc., the span length may be about 4.5 m.
• Similarly, in case of railway track the maximum span length can be
about 6 m and should not exceed this limit.
• The culvert mainly consists of abutment, wingwalls, arches or desk
slab, parapet and foundation.
• Floor pitching from inside the culvert in the bed of drain may or may
not be provided, it depends on the soil condition and flow velocity of
the stream water.

Pipe Culverts: -

• The pipe culverts are used for very small drainage works, passing
through the embankment of road or railway.
• It consists of one or more pipes placed side by side each other.
• The pipes are generally made of steel, R.C.C., cast iron etc.
• To retain the pipes and embankment at their proper position against the
action of spring water etc., they are laid with masonry work in the form
of arches at both the ends.

67 | P a g e
INTERNSHIP REPORT ON PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT

• Sometimes, it is also performed by stone pitching. In the case, when


height of embankment is more than 6 m over the pipe then an extra
care is needed.
• In this condition, there should be given a proper cushion, all-round.
• The cushion should not be less than half of the diameter of the pipe
with a maximum 45 cm at the top.

Hume Pipe: -
• A Hume pipe is a concrete tube with reinforced bar. It was invented by
the Hume brothers in Australia in 1910.
• A hume pipe is formed by pouring concrete into a formwork, and axially
rotating it, and allowing it to compact using centrifugal force.
• A hume pipe can withstand internal and external pressure well, and is
primarily used for sewer pipes, agricultural waterways, and residential
construction.
• Anti-bacterial concrete is commonly used in hume pipes.

• Class
Light duty- NP2, Medium Duty- NP3, Heavy Duty- NP4
• Density
Optimum water cement ratio and High density.
• Length

1.) Provision of 80mm with 0.15m Thick Soling: -

• Soling is the process of arranging or hand packing of


rubble stones or bricks one adjacent to another, to provide a
cushion and a stable strong subbase to the foundation and
footing, before concreting work.

• Rubble soling or boulder soling is done to enhance or to


increase the bearing capacity of the soil, where hard strata is
not available.

• Generally, basalt, granite, or locally available hard stones


are used for soling purpose.

• The process of hand packing the rubble stones over the earth
surface or on the sand bed is called as rubble soling

2.) Laying of PCC Bed: -


The mixture of cement, fine
aggregate (sand) and coarse aggregate are generally called plain
cement concrete (PCC).

• Before starting any R.C.C or masonry work directly on the


excavated soil, PCC is done to form a levelled surface and to
avoid laying concrete on soil directly so as to avoid mixing/ with

73 | P a g e
INTERNSHIP REPORT ON PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT

soil and also to prevent soil extracting water from PCC thereby
weakening it.

• In PCC (plain cement concrete) we use M10 grade of


concrete. Here reinforcement is not provided.

• M10 mix have ratio of 1:3:6 = cement: sand: aggregate with


required water cement ratio (say 0.60) and the strength achieved
after 28 days of curing is 10N/mm2.
• For this structure M10 PCC bed was laid.
• PCC bed was laid for different components. They are
1) For the head wall having length of 7m, width of 1.5m and
depth of 0.15m.
2) For 4 wing walls with its length of 5.80m, width of 1.4m and
depth of 0.15m
3) For rigid pavement over pipe culvert having length of 7m,
width of 6m and depth of 0.10 m.
4) Rigid Pavement for the approach road having length of 8m,
width of 5m and depth of 0.10m.

Walls.

• M20 Grade of Concrete was used for concreting of 4 wing walls


and 2 head walls.
• For a depth of 0.5 m, first lift of concreting was done.
• As per the design of wall, section of wall is tapered so average
width of wall was considered for the purpose of calculating the
quantity of concrete to be used.
• As bottom width is 1.2m, so for depth of 0.6m the corresponding
top width was calculated by interpolation.
• Top width for first lift was 1.2m.
• Same procedure was repeated for the second head wall.
• With this slope of 1:3 was also maintained for both the head walls.
• Total concrete to be used for the head walls is as follows: -

4) Laying cement concrete pipe: -

Introduction: -

• Concrete pipe is a rigid pipe having very good strength and high
longevity.
• They are suitable for various loading conditions
• Concrete pipes are structures made of concrete and steel which is a
combination of properties that allows a designer to specify any level of
strength required in a project.
• The manufacturing of precast concrete pipes takes place at a controlled
factory setting with rigid production standards and quality control
requirements.

Types of RCC pipes: -

• Hume pipes are available in three grades NP2, NP3, and NP4.
• The major difference between NP2, NP3, and NP4 RCC pipes is the load-
bearing quality and flow.
• NP 2 RCC pipes are used for low duty load.
• NP 3 RCC pipes are used for medium-duty load.
• NP 4 RCC pipes are used for heavy-duty load.
• Instead of the thickness, these are differentiated on the basis of grades and
reinforcement.
• On the basis of shape and size, different types of RCC pipes are collar joint
type, Spigot and Socket type pipe

76 | P a g e
INTERNSHIP REPORT ON PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT

• As per the design, cement concrete pipe of IS 458:2003 NP-3 class of


1000mm in diameter with proper line, level and slope was provided.

Reasons to Choose Concrete Pipe: -

Strength
Precast concrete pipe is the strongest pipe available. It can be designed and
plant tested to resist any load required. Unlike flexible pipe, it has minimal
reliance on installation to support loads; it relies primarily on its inherent
brute strength manufactured into the pipe.

Resilience
As the strongest pipe available, precast concrete pipe is designed and tested
to resist any load required. With the ability to withstand almost any disaster,
concrete pipe is the most product in its class and it will not burn, rust, tear,
buckle, deflect, and it’s immune to the attack of most elements, whether the
pipe is buried or exposed. Projects that use concrete pipe can prepare and
plan to absorb, recover from, or more successfully adapt to adverse events.

Dependability
Concrete pipe’s long-term performance is proven, not theoretical. Innovation
has made concrete pipe more reliable and dependable than ever. This
innovation includes improvements to concrete mixes, pipe design,
manufacturing processes and more.

Structure & Conduit


Concrete pipe is a rigid pipe that provides both structure and conduit when it
arrives on site. Unlike flexible alternatives, concrete pipe has little
dependence on the surrounding soil for its structural performance.

Disaster-Resilient
Concrete pipe will not burn, corrode prematurely, or collapse under loads
81 | P a g e
INTERNSHIP REPORT ON PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT

designed into the pipe structure. In heavy rainfall or catastrophic flooding


situations, concrete’s density keeps pipes in place against upward, buoyant
forces. When concrete pipe is under roadways, evacuation routes remain
safe.

Life-Cycle Cost
Concrete pipe has lower installed costs, less ongoing maintenance, and
reduced likelihood of future problems. This adds up to a lower total cost over
the life cycle of your project. That’s the definition of real value.

Environmentally Friendly
Concrete is produced with benign, natural materials. What’s more,
manufacturing of concrete consumes less energy than fabrication of
alternative pipes. It is also recyclable and has little if any environmental
impact. Because it’s a local resource, concrete can provide lower fuel cost
for delivery.

Lower-Risk Installation
Concrete’s strength facilitates successful installation. This lessens the
liability on the owner, engineer, and contractor. When proper installation is
specified and inspected, concrete pipe has the lowest installed cost and risk,
compared to alternative products.

Design / Construction Flexibility


Precast concrete pipe provides strength and flexibility to ensure the success
of your most demanding applications. Pipes are manufactured with a variety
of sizes, shapes, joints, and seal options. Plus, an array of linings and
coatings can handle the most aggressive environment.

82 | P a g e
INTERNSHIP REPORT ON PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT

Joint Performance
Concrete pipe offers the design engineer several different joint types,
depending on the application, to meet the utmost demanding project
specifications. Soil-tight, water-tight, and pressure-rated joints can be
designed to meet different sealing requirements.

Hydraulic Performance
Precast concrete pipe’s rigidity and mass allow it to greatly outperform
flexible pipe systems in this critical area, which in turn helps to improve
hydraulic efficiency by minimizing the resistance to water flow that often
occurs when the shape or integrity of a flexible pipe is compromised.

5) Formwork Preparation and Concreting 2nd lift for Head


Walls.

• M20 Grade of Concrete was used for concreting of 4 wing walls and 2
head walls.
• For a depth of 0.7m, second lift of concreting was done.
• As per the design of wall, section of wall is tapered so average width
of wall was considered for the purpose of calculating the quantity of
concrete to be used.
• As bottom width is 1.2m, so for overall depth of 2.2m the
corresponding top width is 0.45m.
• Same procedure was repeated for the second head wall.
• With this slope of 1:3 was also maintained for both the head walls.

INTERNSHIP REPORT ON PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT

6) Concreting of Wing Wall: -

Purpose of a Wing Wall in A Culvert

• Culvert wing walls are a type of headwall consisting of concrete


slabs or steel plates that extend from a culvert opening on an angle.
• They’re best for maximizing erosion control and have footings or
aprons for effective results.
• Wing walls are also quick and easy to install, extending from a
bridge and box culvert opening as a retaining wall for nearby terrain.
• Wing walls primarily reside near streams, ponds, and other waterway
systems to support roadways, railways, and bridges.
• wingwall units are used at both the inlet and outlet of a pipe system
in both culvert and storm-water applications.
• The natural flow path of water upstream is wider than the culvert /
pipe structure.
• Transition sections are therefore required in order to receive and
direct the flow of upstream water through the culvert / pipe.
• The same transition elements are required at the downstream end of
the culvert / pipe to return the flow of water to the natural width of
the stream.
• Our efficient design ensures maximum hydraulic flow performance
at both the inlet and outlet of culverts structures.
• The angle of wingwalls to headwalls, coupled with the sloping base,
ensures that the incoming water flows effortlessly through the
structure, limiting debris build up in the corners.

85 | P a g e
INTERNSHIP REPORT ON PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT

• There are four wing walls provided in this structure.


• Two wing walls were provided at upstream side whereas other two
were provided at the downstream side.
• Provision of wing walls were as per the site condition.
• Each wing wall has a length of 5.5m, width of 0.725m and height of
2.2m respectively.
• Total quantity of concrete used for wing wall is 35.090 cum.

How Do Wing Walls and Headwalls Work Together?

• Headwalls consist of precast concrete or steel structures with a bottom


and wings to help soil deflect water.
• Headwalls primarily reside near streams, ponds, and other waterway
systems to support roadways, railways, and bridges.
• They anchor the culvert to prevent dangerous or unwanted movement
from soil and hydraulic pressure.
• Headwalls and wing walls work together by improving the flow of a
conduit.
• They also secure the ends of bridge sections and box culverts.
• Culvert headwalls and wing walls help stabilize inlet soil conditions
while improving upstream hydraulics.
• By maximizing flow performance for inlet and outlet culvert structures,
they also help create functional, permanent designs.

• What is Cushion?
Cushion is a layer of earth crust between pipe and road crust which is
provided when there is a gap between existing ground and proposed
road crust.

• Minimum Cushion above Pipe.


There should be a minimum cushion of 600 mm. According to cushion
height, there are some additional requirements which should be
fulfilled. If cushion is between 600 mm and 4 meters, then cradle on
both side of pipe should be provided.

Conclusion

In conclusion, my internship experience at Public Works Division was invaluable.


Through it, I gained valuable skills in customer service & problem-solving, as
well as a better understanding of the different aspects of a business. The
knowledge I have acquired will benefit me in my future endeavors. During
training period, a lot of experience, knowledge and exposure that I have handy.
All disclosures were awakened myself in a boost of self-confidence to face life
more challenging now. Practical is a complement to the science or theory
learned. This is clearly the concept of science and charity, where they have
learned without practice will be lost and will not give anything - what effect. So,
if we do without the knowledge of course there will be problems in terms of grip
and stance ever - changing.

During my industrial training, there are many changes from the point of learning
environments and discussion among colleagues. It can directly increase the
dedication and rational attitude toward myself.

However, there are still some weaknesses that can be improved in the future.
Therefore, I conclude that the industrial training program has provided many
benefits to students even if there are minor flaws that are somewhat disfiguring
condition, so that this weakness can be rectified in the future.

All in all, this internship was a fantastic opportunity to gain hands-on experience
and hone my skills on field. I am grateful for all the lessons & experiences I have
gained during my time at PWD, which I can now confidently apply to any future
roles.

PWD has been an incredibly rewarding & enriching experience. During my


internship, I developed my technical skills & understand the operations of a
successful business. I have also made some lasting connections that will be of
great value in my professional life. Overall, I have learned so much from this
experience, which will benefit me immensely in the future.
