Summary, etc |
"Civil engineering focuses on the design, maintenance and construction of the physical and naturally built environment. It is a branch of engineering that deals with public works such as roads, bridges, dams, canals, airports, sewerage systems, pipelines, airports, structural components of buildings and railways. Some of the sub-disciplines of civil engineering are coastal engineering, earthquake engineering, forensic engineering, geotechnical engineering, structural engineering, construction engineering and environmental engineering. Coastal engineering deals with the specific demands which arise during the construction at or near the coast, along with the development of the coast itself. Earthquake engineering is concerned with the designing of structures which are expected to withstand hazardous earthquake exposures. This book outlines the processes and applications of civil engineering in detail. Some of the diverse topics covered herein address the varied branches that fall under this category. For someone with an interest and eye for detail, this book covers the most significant topics in this field." -- Provided by publisher |
