Questions
Which syllabus does the Transportation Engineering course follow?
It follows the AKTU (Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam Technical University, Lucknow) B.Tech syllabus for Transportation Engineering. If your own university's syllabus differs, the centre follows your university syllabus.
Will this help in the university examination?
Yes. Teaching is unit-wise as per the AKTU scheme, with previous-year question practice, MCQ tests and doubt sessions before the semester exam.
Are IRC codes covered?
Yes. IRC 37, IRC 58, IRC 73 and IRC 106 provisions needed for the AKTU syllabus are explained with solved examples.
