12. Environmental
• Environmental Engineers work for environment such
as:
– Sanitary waste treatment facilities,
– Potable (drinking) water treatment facility.
– Water pollution control
– Air pollution control,
Environmental engineers also design
– municipal water supply
– industrial wastewater treatment system.

13. • Transportation Engineers design and analyze
– Highways,
– Railways,
– Airports,
– Urban and Suburban Road Networks,
– Parking Lots, and
– Traffic Control Signal Systems.

Transportation
14. 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.

15. • Water management involves the
use of hydrologic and hydraulic
principles to design:
–Drainage systems,
–Detention/retention ponds,
–Navigational waterways, and
–Flood control levees, dams, and
lakes.

Hydraulics & Water Management
16. • Construction managers:
– Review contracts,
– Order materials,
– Hire and schedule sub-contractors.
• The job of a construction manager is to:
– Provide quality control and insure project is
completed on time and.
– Within budget.
