Engineering Development

Civil engineering is one of the branches of engineering that learns about how to design, build, renovate not only buildings and infrastructure, but also cover the environment for the benefit of human life.

Civil engineering has a wide scope, in which knowledge of mathematics, physics, chemistry, biology, geology, environment until the computer has its own role. Civil engineering developed in line with the level of human needs and movement, to say this science can turn a forest into a big city.

This branch of civil engineering makes it very flexible in the world of work. The professions of an expert in this field include: designing / implementing the construction / maintenance of road infrastructure, bridges, tunnels, buildings, airports, traffic (land, sea, air), channel network system, drainage, irrigation, housing, , minimization of earthquake losses, environmental protection, water supply, land surveys, financial concepts of the project, project management etc. All aspects of life are embedded in the content of civil engineering science.

The difference from the architect, lies in the position of civil engineers in a project. Architects donate designs, ideas, and possibilities of implementing development on paper. The draft results are then submitted to the civil engineering expert staff for development implementation. This stage, civil engineers make improvements / suggestions from the implementation of planning, coordination in the project, observing the course of the project to fit the planning. In addition, civil engineers also develop financial concepts and project management on matters that affect the course of the project.

Civil engineers not only deal with the construction of a building project, but in other fields such as those relating to informatics, it is possible to model a form with the help of CAD programs, modeling earthquake damage, flooding. This is very important in developed countries as a benchmark for the feasibility of building a vital building that has the risk of causing many human victims such as nuclear reactors or dams, in case of technical planning failure. The design of the building is usually modeled in computers with given the threat factors such as earthquake building and material structure collapse. The role of civil engineers is still valid even though the construction phase of a building has been completed, as it lies in the maintenance of the building's facilities.
