The Engineering Practices Laboratory in the Mechanical
  Engineering Department was instituted in the year 1994 at Sri 
Ramakrishna  Engineering College. The Engineering Practices Laboratory 
consists of the  Carpentry, Fitting section and sheet metal section.  
    
    
      
      It caters to the requisites of the Engineering Practices  
Laboratory as per the Autonomous Syllabus and curriculum of the College.
 First  year B.E. and B.Tech. Students of the college perform Carpentry 
experiments in  the Engineering Practices Laboratory. Experiments 
performed in the Carpentry  shop include T lap joint, Dove tail lap 
joint, Mortise and Tenon joints.  Students are illustrated with 
demonstration experiments in the Sheet Metal Shop  as part of their 
syllabus. Content beyond their Syllabus, students perform  Square 
filing, V-fitting and Square fitting experiments in this Laboratory. 
    
    
      
      The Engineering Practices Laboratory is also used for  fabrication
 of projects by the students for their Mini Project pursued in their  
6th Semester, B.E. Mechanical Engineering course and also for the 
fabrication  in Project works ensued in the 8th Semester, B.E. 
Mechanical Engineering  course. The facilities available are also 
utilized by the students belonging to  the other branches for their 
Project work in their 8th Semester, B.E./B.Tech  courses. The 
Engineering Practices Laboratory gets into limelight when the  students 
make the most of it for the fabrication and development of the BAJA  
AUTO CAR every year successfully.
