CIVIL ENGINEERING
Engineering, using various models and techniques, trying to solve
different problems and meet various needs of human beings.
Practitioners in this science, which are called engineers, combine the
scientific method with their creativity to carry out their projects.
The engineering specialty that is responsible for the creation of
infrastructure, transport and hydraulic works is called civil engineering
undertaking. Usually it deals with public works and major developments.
In addition to construction work, civil engineering is involved in the
inspection, examination and preservation of what was built. In this way,
seeks to collaborate in protecting the environment and preventing
accidents related to infrastructure works derived from engineering
Within civil engineering, it is possible to distinguish between hydraulic
engineering, construction engineering, traffic engineering, transportation
engineering, geotechnical engineering and structural engineering.
Among the various tasks that can develop civil engineers are designing
airports, roads, construction of a building or direction of the works of a
bridge. So your task is very important to achieve the urban growth of
any country and improve its infrastructure.
Action fields of Civil Engineering
Over the years the fields of action of Civil Engineering have been
growing; so much so that today not only handles the artificial works, but
to solve problems that have to do with natural materials means, for
example the consequences of the rains, earthquakes, etc.
As regards the physical scope, it is considered to include the civil works
and the land on which they are built. To perform its functions, engineers
must conduct studies and keep track of the status of those buildings that
perform as well as find ways to understand the behavior of space to
avoid certain disaster.
