Introduction Of Civil Engineering

Civil engineering affects many of our daily activities: the buildings we live in and work in, the transportation facilities we use, the water we drink,
and the drainage and sewage systems that are necessary to our health and well-being.
Civil engineers:

• Measure and map the earth’s surface.

• Design and supervise the construction of bridges, tunnels, large buildings, dams, and coastal structures.

• Plan, layout, construct, and maintain railroads, highways, and airports.

• Devise systems for the control and efficient flow of traffic.
