SURVEYING

Workshops were the only places of production until the advent of industrialisation and the development of larger factories. Engineering workshop is the laboratory which provides both the area and tools (or machinery) that may be required for the manufacture or repair of manufactured goods. Here the students will learn the basics about Carpentry, Fitting, Tin Smithy, Black Smithy and House Wiring.
