Department of Civil Engineering organized a field visit on engineering geology-I for 1st-semester students on 6th – 9th Chaitra, 2080. The Malekhu site was selected since different rock types along a single route can be observed along the roadside, and the river channel pattern of the Trishuli River can be observed well. Different geological structures are also well exposed in this area. The study of other rocks, geological structures, river channel morphology, and measurement of the attitudes of stones are the measures of the study area of the visit.

The team explored different geological formations, such as rock outcrops, riverbeds, and slopes. They closely examined the geological structures, mineral composition, and the effects of natural forces on the terrain. The instructors emphasized that field visits provide an invaluable opportunity for students to bridge the gap between theory and practice. By observing geological formations and understanding their behavior, students can develop a comprehensive understanding of the challenges they may encounter in their future careers as civil engineers.
