What is Civil Engineering??? Civil engineering is a composite of many specific disciplines. –Structural & solid mechanics. –Waste treatment & environmental. –Transportation. –Geotechnical & soil mechanics. –Hydraulics & water management. –Construction management.

61% are clueless about engineering Why? Civil Engineering is Everywhere Civil Engineering is a composite of many specific disciplines. –Structural –Waste Treatment –Transportation –Geotechnical –Water Management –Construction Management

Building Big!!!! Buildings & Structures: Cities Infrastructure: Transportation Culture: Art: Architecture The Future: Without Limit!

Structural & Solid Mechanics Structural engineers design steel, concrete, or timber framed structures such as: –Tall buildings & towers, –Bridges, –Dams, –Retaining walls, & foundations, &. –Stadiums.

Waste Treatment & Environmental. Wastewater treatment engineers are civil or environmental engineers trained to design or analyze water treatment plants. Water treatment plants are categorized as follows: –Sanitary waste treatment facilities, –Industrial waste treatment facilities, –Potable (drinking) water treatment facility. Largest treatment basins in the USA

Transportation Transportation Engineers design and analyze –Highways, –Railways, –Airports, –Urban and Suburban Road Networks, –Parking Lots, and –Traffic Control Signal Systems.

Geotechnical & Soil Mechanics Geotechnical Engineers analyze the subterranean rock and soil to determine its suitability to support extreme loads. Proper geotechnical engineering is essential for a safe and secure structure.

Hydraulics & Water Management Water management involves the use of hydrologic and hydraulic principles to design: –Drainage systems, –Detention/retention ponds, –Navigational waterways, and –Flood control levees, dams, and lakes.

Construction Management Construction managers: –Review contracts, –Order materials, –Hire and schedule sub- contractors. The job of a construction manager is to: –Provide quality control and insure project is completed on time and. –Within budget.
