In my summer of 2019, I did internship in RITES Ltd., a Navratna PSU situated in Gurugram, Haryana for a period of 9 weeks. There I was assigned with Geo-technical(GT) and RPO/North division for a period of 5 weeks and 4 weeks respectively. Therefore, my internship covers a variety of works. I first started with GT (Geotechnical) division. In GT, I learnt about the Uniaxial Compressive Strength test for rock, silt factor calculation, preparation of borelogs, preparation of soil parameter table, calculation of SBC for pile foundations, determining dimensions of shallow footing and calculating SBC and settlement for it. After the end of this great time of 5 weeks in GT, I joined RPO/ North division. There diversified work was assigned to me of different segments of that division. This includes basic aspects of railway track design, introduction to the software MICROSTATION, site visit at Pragati Maidan (Delhi), design of a retaining wall and introduction to PMC (Project management consultancy) work.
