Civil Engineering Objective Type questions Written by S.S. Bhavikatti

Civil Engineering Objective Type questions is covered a vast syllabus of civil engineering competitive exam like UPSC, GATE, PSC, CPWD, JOINT CSIR-UGC, INDIAN FOREST SERVICES, PWD ETC .
on every aspect of civil engineering. With this objective, competitive examinations are conducted to
select candidates for admission to postgraduate courses, UPSE, BHEL, ONGC, NTPC and many
more organizations. this book has been prepared to enable the candidates to glance through all the subjects and prepare themselves for the competitive examinations.First presented briefly and then an exhaustive set of objective type questions with keys at the end are presented.
The author hopes all UG students, students preparing for competitive examinations and practising
engineers will find this book useful.
