Civil Engineering
The word "engineering" means the art of designing, construction, or using engines. But this word is now applied in a more extended sense. It is applied also to the art of executing such works as the objects of civil and military architecture, in which engines or other mechanical appliances are used. Engineering is divided into many branches. The most important of them are: civil, mechanical, electrical, nuclear, mining, military, marine, and sanitary engineering. While the definition "civil engineering" dates back only two centuries, the profession of civil engineer is as old as civilized life.
In order to understand clearly what civil engineering constitutes, let us consider briefly the development of different branches of engineering. Some forms of building and utilization of the materials and forces of nature have always been necessary for man. Man had to protect himself against the elements and sustain himself in the conflict with nature.
Up to about the middle of the 18th century there were two main branches of engineering-civil and military. The former in included all those branches of the constructive art not directly connected with military operations and the construction of fortifications, while military engineering concerned itself with the application of science and the utilization of building materials in the art of war.
Bat later there came a remarkable series of mechanical inventions, great discoveries in electrical science and atomic energy. It led to the differentiation of century had been considered a branch of engineering had become a profession by itself. The term "civil engineering" has therefore two distinct meanings. In the widest and oldest sense it includes all non-military branches of engineering as it did two centuries ago. But in its narrower, and at the present day more correct sense, civil engineering includes mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, metallurgical, and mining engineering. Have are some fields of civil engineering.
1. Housing, industrial, and agricultural construction.
2. Structural engineering which comprises the construction of all fixed structures with their foundations.
3. The construction of highways and city streets and pavements.
4. The construction of rail roads.
5. The construction of harbors and canals.
6. Hydraulic engineering, which includes the construction of dams and power plants. The above enumeration will make clear the vast extent of the field of civil engineering
