About ICE Student Chapter UET, Lahore. ICE student chapter UET Lahore is an internationally recognized student chapter

of ICE UK. It is the only pure technical society in UET Lahore. The main objective

of ICE UET Lahore is clearly perceptible from its motto that is “To Promote and

Develop “.

Our main purpose is to carry out the professional grooming of the students of UET

Lahore by providing them a sophisticated work environment where they can

enhance their technical knowledge along with gaining experience by working with

different students from different engineering disciplines. So that In future they will

not have to face any difficulty working with individuals of different traits.

In UET Lahore we believe that due to the lack of extracurricular activities, the

mind-set of the students has been changed. All they have to do is to study and get

good grades which are no doubt very important but if you want to be distinguished

from others, you have to possess some additional qualities, which they can attain

under the platform of ICE UET.

Our Advisor:

It is an honour for us to have Dr. Khalid Farooq (Associate Professor Civil

Engineering Dept. UET Lahore) as our Advisor.

Our Mentor:

We are lucky to have Engr. FaizanShafique (Lecturer Civil Engineering Dept.

UET Lahore) and Engr. EhteshamMehmood (Assistant Professor Civil

Engineering Dept. UET Lahore).

What we have done in the past?

Since from the founding of ICE in UET Lahore, we have arranged various events,

competitions, software workshops and seminars. Our activities continue

throughout the year which ends with our main event Civcon (Abbreviation for

Civil Conference) which is a mega event comprising number of competitions,

seminars, workshops etc. The objective of arranging all of this is to promote the

technical knowledge of students. As most of our competitions are related to the

basic knowledge of engineering, so the idea is to create an atmosphere to

competition among the students, so that they can apply their knowledge to some

practical scale and enhance their learning. Similarly due to the increased use of

software in the field, we believe that it is very important for the students to learn

the latest software so that they can excel in the field. ICE UET Lahore has been

arranging workshops for different software since 2012. Apart from technical

competitions, workshops and events. We also arrange different seminar for the

grooming of our fellow students and to introduce a little bit of fun element we also

arrange different non-technical competitions. And we plan to keep on arranging

these competitions, events, seminars, workshops and much more in the future.

What is Civcon?

Civcon has now become a legacy of ICE Student Chapter UET Lahore.

We have been arranging this event every year from 2012.

Civcon is a mega event which comprises of many sub events, technical and non-

technical competitions, seminars, workshops and much more.

Our Objectives for the year 2014: In the start of our university year in fall 2013, the ICE executive body set up many

objectives for the next year 2014, Our main objectives were :

1- To promote the art of civil engineering by organizing different technical

competitions.

2- To provide a learning platform to the students by organizing different

workshops on engineering software.

3- To increase the number of student memberships.

4- To organize Civcon’14.

5- To organize different seminars regarding engineering problems in field.

What we actually did: Thankfully with the great hard work and dedication shown by Team ICE UET

Lahore, we successfully achieved all our objectives set by us. We organized

different workshops, seminars, competitions and Civcon’14. Our membership also

increases by 20 % as compared to the year 2013.

Finance And Resources: As we all know that to run the operations of any society we need finances. Our

Events of ICE

WORKSHOPS

Workshops can be quite diverse. Some may be regularly occurring gatherings of

researchers and practitioners who are working on an established topic, while others

may seek to lay the foundations for research in a new or emerging area.

ICE Student Chapter UET Lahore organized a number of workshops to help the

students in understanding various software. ICE Workshops provided a highly

interactive and collaborative environment in which to discuss and advance

important topics in various software.

Workshop on SAFE:

SAFE (Slab Analysis by Finite Method), satisfies all

the structural requirements of a structural engineer

from framing layout to detail drawing procedure.

Thus, a workshop on

SAFE was organized by

ICE Student Chapter UET

Lahore, especially for the

students of 3rd

year and 4th

year of Civil Engineering

to help them in understanding software that can make

their work much easier and effective. Workshop was

conducted by Dr. AzharSaleem (A PhD. Scholar from

Florida International University and trainer/teacher for

over a decade). That proved to be very beneficial for

the students.

Workshop on BIM:

BIM (Building Information Modelling) is an intelligent 3D model-based process

for planning, design, and construction.

Another, successful and informative workshop on BIM was organized by ICE for

the first time in UET Lahore, that helped the engineering students of UET Lahore

to present their planning, design, and construction knowledge in a more effective

and better way.

The lectures were delivered by two professionals working in PROFESSIONAL

Technical Events

The technical events of CIVCON 14’ comprised of:

1. AutoCAD Contest

2. Scaled Bridge Contest

3. Battle of Geeks

AutoCAD Contest

ICE provided the students a platform where they

can express their AutoCAD skills. They were

given a task on AutoCAD which they had to

complete within a specified time, and in the end

the winner was selected based on the efficiency of

the work and the fulfilling of rules and regulation.

Scaled Bridge Contest

Students were provided with wooden

sticks and glue guns; they had to

model and construct a bridge using

the given material within the allocated

time. The winner was selected based

on the self weight and the load

carrying capacity of the bridge. It

proved to be a great opportunity for

the students to boast their engineering

skills with the bridge models

constructed by them.

Battle of Geeks

It was a perfect platform for the students to

demonstrate their sharp-wits and to be known as

the smartest and the brainiest group of three. The

students had to think outside the box to answer a lot
