The CAD Laboratory is a central facility of the institute where all undergraduate and postgraduate students, research scholars and faculty members can work with the sophisticated 2-D & 3-D design and analysis software. They can learn to use the latest software and carry out their research work.

Concrete lab enables students to carry various experiments regarding Compressive Strength of Concrete, Tensile Strength of Concrete, Work ability Test, Design Mix, and Modulus of Rupture of Concrete. All these experiments intended to determine the quality of concrete.

Surveying laboratory aids in the developments of fundamental laboratory on land surveying to civil engineering students. Laboratory comprises of instruments for distance measurements and for measuring heights of the objects.

The Soil Mechanics Laboratory is well equipped with all necessary equipment for undergraduate and postgraduate teaching and research in soil mechanics and foundation engineering. Research, consultancy and regular soil testing works are conducted in this laboratory under the supervision of faculty members, research scholars and laboratory staffs specializing in the area of Geotechnical Engineering.

Highway engineering laboratory is a teaching and research laboratory equipped to conduct standard tests for asphalt pavement design and paving materials for undergraduate teaching, as well as advanced research oriented experiments for assessing the engineering properties and behaviours of new paving materials. It is also well equipped to support research activities in the area of non-destructive field evaluation of in service road and airport pavements. In addition, the laboratory carries a good collection of in house developed software for closed form analysis of pavements responses under traffic and thermal loadings, pavement properties backcalculation, and laboratory and field permeability determination of porous pavement materials.

Water and waste water analysis Laboratory, being established during 2012 is fully equipped with relevant equipment and sensors for monitoring water and waste water qualities including concentration levels of total dissolved/suspended solids, turbidity, hardness, alkalinity, acidity, chlorides, dissolved oxygen, biochemical oxygen demand, chemical oxygen demand, most probable numbers of bacteria. At present, this laboratory is maintained and operated to conduct experiments at UG level course curriculum. The research equipment with more advanced features is under process to get installed in this laboratory.

The Hydraulics Laboratory is a state-of-the art facility used to conduct a variety of experiments pertaining to water. Among other things, this laboratory provides a means of testing the hydraulic properties of submerged bridges and the hydraulic properties of highway drainage structures and stream crossings.

The objective of the strength of materials lab is to demonstrate the basic principles in the area of strength and mechanics of materials and structural analysis to the undergraduate students through a series of experiments.
