Civil Engineering is a composite of many specific disciplines.
Structural
Waste Treatment
Transportation
Geotechnical
Water Management
Construction Management
Structural & Solid Mechanics
Structural engineers design steel, concrete, or timber framed structures such as:
Tall buildings & towers,
Bridges,
Dams,
Retaining walls, & foundations, &.
Stadiums.
Waste Treatment & Environmental.
Wastewater treatment engineers are civil or environmental engineers trained to design or analyze water treatment plants.
Water treatment plants are categorized as follows:
Sanitary waste treatment facilities,
Industrial waste treatment facilities,
Potable (drinking) water treatment facility.
Transportation
Transportation Engineers design and analyze
Highways,
Railways,
Airports,
Urban and Suburban Road Networks,
Parking Lots, and
Traffic Control Signal Systems.
Geotechnical & Soil Mechanics
Geotechnical Engineers analyze the subterranean rock and soil to determine its suitability to support extreme loads.
Proper geotechnical engineering is essential for a safe and secure structure.
