An adventure with Practical Period in Adraskan
s known, one of the most
important matters in development of a country depends to its main
transpirations ways (such as land road, Railways, Air ways and sea ways),
which the Land transportations ways (Roads), Are the most especial
and inexpensive and also the important part of these types.
As all we know ,we
have only two types of these links is available for us ,and unfortunately
the Air ways links are not so suitable and safe for marketing use or for
traveling. So the rest type is Land roads that we can use that for
development and usual use in dairy works . And also we know that ,this type
of transportation is damaged due to several war years. So as an engineer
the only minimum thing that we can do for accelerating the development and
after that going to independence economics is to build or to rehabilitate
the contacting Roads and Highways.
And for doing well
this duty, it’s needed to increasing our know ledges about building of new
roads and or rehabilitation of the existing roads .but for our new
government and by the preliminary possibilities we just can think about
the rehabilitations of existing Road due to the high cost of new projects .
And there fore I
decided to earn some knowledge and experience about Road extension, and
rehabilitation of the existing Roads .
So the best way was
to spend my practice period in a project that has relation to Road
construction ,which was Louis Berger Group Inc , which is a
construction company and also rebuild the Kandahar -Kabul in the past and
is Working on Herat -Kandahar High way( for more information about this
company please click the link
Here ).
And as I want, I
could take a train course (with very hard working days) in central
laboratory of this company in Afghanistan. And I can strongly claim which
it is the only complete and good laboratory inside Afghanistan, (for seeing
pictures click here).
The general
description of the train period will be attached by this preface, but for
some discussion about laboratory itself, I must say that in common the works
in laboratory is divided by two parts: Sampling, and testing, which both of
these have several branches, each of the mentioned procedures have
determined specification and minimum requirement which generally is
explained in contracts between employee and client.
The general
requirements and specification of tests and their procedure and applications
is referenced to ((AASHTO)) or ((ASTM)) reference manual,
which are the most common and accurate engineering manuals.
In next pages you can find the general procedure of
some important tests which commonly had tested in laboratory, somewhere,
available pictures or data bout procedures and equipments for testing is
included by this report.
But due to
security conditions and other confidential matters the exact data and
procedure won’t be included by the procedure but Imaginary data for
introduction will be exists.
Go to the
Next Page for General information about the
process of sampling, testing and procedures of works in a Earth work
mechanical Laboratory.
