Properties of Concrete by A.M. Neville
He is passionate about various frontiers of
knowledge in the domain of civil engineering with main focus on Structural
Engineering. His area of interest includes Structural Control, Earthquake
Engineering, Design of RCC and Steel Structures, Disaster Management and
Distance Education.
He is involved in planning, designing and
preparation of self-instructional course material for engineering programmes at
Indira Gandhi National Open university (IGNOU) for the last 26 years. He
has been involved in programme planning, designing and delivery of Diploma in
Civil Engineering DCLE(G), Bachelor of Architecture (B. Arch.) and B. Tech.
Civil Engineering (BTCM & BTWRE).
As an independent research activity in Open
and distance Learning (ODL), he investigated an IGNOU sponsored project
entitled “Effective utilization of learning resources at Study Centres of
IGNOU”. He was also an investigator for a research project on Structural
Control entitled ”Development of Semi-actively Controlled Structures and
Devices for Seismic Protection Using Smart Materials” which was funded by,
Department of Science and Technology (DST), Government of India.
Skill development is one of his favourite
areas to work with. He was involved in design and development of competency
based training and testing methodology for skill development programmes for
construction workers. Competency statements were prepared for different trades
of Construction Worker’s Vocational Qualification (CWVQ) Project. With the help
of Ministry of Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSME), He conducted short
term skill development programmes in North-East region of the country to train
