All about CIvil Engineering
00:11
What do we get to our mind when we heard of a “CIVIL ENGINEER”, all those tall buildings ? ,huge Dams, ? large Roads? ,and those narrow, freaky Tunnels ??.
Yes of course it is what a civil engineer
deals with.. .But it is not as it we think, it is something more ……
Actually , CIVIL
ENGINEERING is a disciplined branch of Engineering stream which deals with the
construction and maintenance of buildings, roads, dams, reservoirs and all …..
It is one of the Civil engineering is the second-oldest engineering discipline
after military engineering, and it is defined to distinguish non-military
engineering from military engineering. Civil engineering has its presence since
the time in between 4000BC to 2000BCin Ancient Egypt, the Indus Valley
Civilization, and Mesopotamia (Ancient Iraq) when humans started to abandon a
nomadic existence, creating a need for the construction of shelter.

3. Parthenon by Iktinos in Ancient Greece (447–438 BC)
4. The Appian Way by Roman engineers
5. The Great Wall of China
6. The stupas constructed in ancient Sri Lanka like the Jetavanaramaya and the extensive irrigation works in Anuradhapura
Also civil Engineering had its significance in those era of
ancient times at which some of the civil marvels were built .Some of the
ancient civil marvels are even among the strongest constructions existing to
date .some of them are as follows.:
1. Qanat water management system 2. pyramids in Egypt
3. Parthenon by Iktinos in Ancient Greece (447–438 BC)
4. The Appian Way by Roman engineers
5. The Great Wall of China

Although we call and name it as CIVIL ENGINEERING as one
stream, it has got its own classification. Since the stream itself deals with many
aspects of natural and physical conditions, Each and every specified topic is
categorised upon its potential and subject.
Civil Engineering stream has been broadly classified as 12 different
categories/subjects. They are as follows:
1.
Material Science and Engineering
2.
Coastal Engineering
3.
Construction Engineering
4.
Earthquake Engineering
5.
Environment Engineering
6.
Geo-technical Engineering
7.
Water resources Engineering
8.
Structural Engineering
9.
Surveying
10.
Transportation Engineering
11.
Forensic Engineering
12.
Municipal/Urban Engineering
