Civil engineers plan, design, and oversee the construction and maintenance of infrastructure and buildings. They use science and math to provide innovative solutions that meet human needs and improve lives. Civil engineers are responsible for ensuring structures are safe and stable by analyzing construction factors and the surrounding area, planning projects, and applying engineering principles. Their work includes conducting tests, using design software, and ensuring accurate implementation of processes using equations.

2. Civil engineers create, improve and
protect the environment in which we live. They plan,
design and oversee construction and maintenance of
building structures and infrastructure, such as roads,
railways, airports, bridges, harbours, dams, irrigation
projects, power plants, and water and sewerage
systems. They Also design and build tall buildings and
large structures that can withstand all weather
conditions.
Furthermore, engineers don’t just work
with machines, designs and electronics, they use math
and science to provide innovative ideas and inventions
to meet human needs and improves the way we live
and work. This means that engineers have a
responsibility towards the developmental aspect of the
society.

SOCIETY

4. ROLES
OF
CIVIL
ENGINEERS
A civil engineer is responsible
for analyzing different factors regarding a
construction and the surrounding area.
The process includes search and
investigation, verifying whether that
location is feasible for construction
purposes or not.
Civil engineers are
responsible for planning and
overseeing different construction
efforts and apply civil engineering
principles to ensure that the
constructed structures are safe
and sturdy.
A civil engineer needs to
conduct a number of functions
such as conducting chemical
testing using various applications,
use a drafting and design software
throughout the project, and
conducting electrical testing of
devices and equipment.
A civil engineer also needs
to use different figures, equation
and applications to ensure that
the processes are been
implemented accurately.

5. WORK
ACTIVITIES
Generally, Civil Engineers fall into two types:
• Consulting engineers - responsible for the designs and implement them
during construction.
• Contracting engineers - work on site, managing the construction of the
structure.
