CIVIL ENGINEERING
INTRODUCTION Civil engineering is a type of
engineering that deals with the science of designing and
building roads, bridges, and large buildings, it's also
about maintaining and adapting the infrastructure that
we depend on every day our roads, railways and
bridges; energy and water supply; waste networks and
flood defenses.
 There are several civil engineering fields
like:
Surveying
Drafting.
Engineering Management.
Geotechnical Engineering.
Roads, Bridges, and Infrastructure.
Buildings and Structures.
Transportation Engineering.

WHAT DO CIVIL ENGINEERS DO?

They create, improve and protect our environment.
They plan, design, supervise construction and
maintenance of building structures and infrastructure.

Generally, there are two types of

civil engineers :
Consulting engineers
Contracting engineers

Consulting engineers they are responsible for designing work for

projects and they mostly work in offices.
Then contracting engineers take the design and apply them
during construction, they work on site and manage the
construction of the structure.

Finally ,Civil engineering is an exciting

profession because at the end of the day you
can see the results of your work, whether this
is a completed bridge, a high-rise building, a
subway station, or a hydroelectric dam.
