The manuals currently available deal with specific fields individually and contain a very large number of experiments many of which are of much higher levels than can be possibly considered at the undergraduate stage. A need is thus felt for a laboratory manual which would contain a well selected number of experiments for each of these fields that would provide an appropriate insight into each of them as well as a broad overview of the entire field of civil engineering. The present work is a trial to develop such a manual which aims to equip the students with those aspects which they definitely ought to learn and enable the handling of experiments in a manner that would benefit them most.
