TYPES OF CIVIL ENGINEERING
Civil Engineering is a complex sector composed of many subdisciplines.
The following are its most prominent subdisciplines:
1. Construction Engineering
Construction engineering involves the design, management and erection of residential and public constructions. Engineers in this subdiscipline oversee the projects and ensure that their schedules are maintained and that the work is handled under the relevant specifications and plans.
They also ensure that the temporary structures used during construction are practical and safe. They might also control the communications, budgetary and time management aspects of the said projects. The common projects they might handle include skyscrapers, industrial warehouses, homes and commercial buildings.
2. Environmental Engineering
Environmental engineering involves the maintenance and improvement of the quality of water, land & air through the promotion of eco-friendly operations. They come up with and implement solutions that reduce waste and pollution or manage projects in public parks. They use a combination of chemistry,biology and engineering to create sound scientific solutions to preserve nature.
3. Earthquake Engineering
Earthquake engineering concerns itself with lowering the damage that earthquakes cause. Engineers in this subdiscipline develop strategies and construct structures and strategies that decrease the vulnerability of certain infrastructures.
4. Structural Engineering
Structural engineering involves the design and inspection of major construction projects such as bridges, buildings and dams. They focus on the internal aspects of such constructions to ensure that they are durable overall. This ensures that such projects have a lower vulnerability to environmental damage or collapse.
5. Geotechnical Engineering
This subdiscipline of civil engineering focuses on how structures built by other civil engineers, like bridges and dams, interact with the earth, primarily soil and rock. The work of the engineers in this subdiscipline ensures the wholeness of the foundations of built structures. They study a wide range of geological factors and also use their knowledge to design tunnels, retaining walls and slopes.
6. Water resources Engineering
Engineers in this subset study a wide variety of waterways around the world. They mainly work on projects like sewage system design and wetland restoration.
7. Fire protection Engineering
Engineers in this subset of civil engineering work to improve and ensure the safety of the public during a fire. They develop strategies and plans that lower the possibility of fires breaking out and mostly work for construction or development companies.
8. Transportation Engineering
Transportation engineering involves the planning, designing, operation and maintenance of transportation systems, like highways and streets. Engineers in this subset also plan massive projects like airports, harbours, mass transit systems and harbours. They are concerned with current transportation and trends that will affect the transportation sector in the future. They then use such knowledge in their maintenance & improvement of modern transportation.
9. Mining Engineering
Engineers in this subset focus their efforts exclusively on mining and extraction of coal, minerals and other related materials. Their work might involve the analysis, planning and designing of mineral hubs & overseeing mining teams.
