пустоCivil engineering describes the profession of designing and executing structural works helping to make our world a better place to live. As the technological revolution expands, as the world’s population increases, and as problems with environment are multiplied, civil engineering skills will be needed throughout the world. This branch of engineering covers different areas including the design and construction of buildings and houses, dams, tunnels, bridges, canals, sanitation systems, also the stationary parts of transportation systems – highways, airports, port facilities, and roadbeds for railroads.
пустоBranches of CE . It is traditionally broken into several sub-disciplines including architectural engineering, environmental engineering, geotechnical engineering, structural engineering, transportation engineering, municipal or urban engineering, water supply and sewerage engineering, material engineering, offshore engineering, aerospace engineering, construction surveying, and some others. Each of these areas involves different duties and different uses of engineers’ knowledge and experience.
пустоEnvironmental Engineering . The skills in this field have become increasingly important as we protect our natural resources. Engineers transform physical, chemical and biological processes into systems to destroy toxic substances, remove pollutants from water, reduce nonhazardous solid waste volumes, eliminate pollutants from the air and develop groundwater supplies.
пустоGeotechnical Engineering is required in all aspects of civil engineering because most projects are supported by the ground. Such engineers may develop projects below the ground, such as tunnels, foundations and offshore platforms. They analyse the properties of soil and rock that support and influence the behaviour of these structures. They evaluate potential settlement of buildings, the stability of slopes and fills, the effects of earthquakes. They also take part in the design and construction of dams, embankments and other structures.
пустоTransportation engineering . Professionals in this field work to move people, goods and materials safely and efficiently. They find ways to meet our ever increasing travel needs on land, air and sea. They design, construct and maintain all types of travel facilities, including airports, highways, railroads, mass transit systems and ports. Civil engineers have one of the world’s most important jobs: they build our quality of life. With creativity and technical skills, civil engineers plan, design, construct and operate the facilities essential to modern life, ranging from bridges and highway systems to water treatment plants and energy-efficient buildings. Civil engineers solve the problems, concerned with pollution, traffic jams, drinking water, energy needs, urban redevelopment and community planning. They may work in research, construction supervision, maintenance or even in sales or management.
