What is civil engineering |Types

 Introduction :-

Civil engineering  affects many  of our  daily  activities  building  we live  in and  work in ,  transportation fecilities , water   use  the srink and  drainage  and sewage  system  that  are  necessary  to our health  and  well-being . cavil engineering  is a professional  engineering  discipline that   deals  with  the  construction  design and maintenance  of the physical and naturally  built environment  including  public  work  such as roads , bridge , sewage  system  plumbing  structural  component  of building  and  Airport.

Importance of civil  engineering:-

The modern society  would not  exist without  civill  engineering  for examples - civil enginer  were  necessary to build  every part of our  transportation  infrastructure , from roads  and bridge  to dock , railways station , and airport . The  development  of our utilities , such  as water,  electricity amd  cell- phone ,  internet service,,required professional  civil engineering  knowledge . All that  is  before  we  even  get into  use  of  civil engineering  for  huge public  structure  like  Dam, power plants,  water treat plant, and road highway.

Types of civil engineering :-

1. Construction and management :-

 This programme  is a combined  study  of basic civil  engineering  and  construction  management  courses.  graduate shall be knowledgeable  on  fundamental  of structure  and construction engineering  like design  and analysis  material  testing and building  system, construction  technologies  and  quality assence and surveying.

2.Geotechnical Engineering:-

It is also known as  techniques , is the  branch of civil engineering  concerned with  engineering  behaviour of our earth  material . its  is  utilizes  the disciplines  of  rock  and  soil  mechanics  to  investigate  subsurface  and  geologic condition  . This investigation  are used to  design , and build  foundation  earth structure  and pavement  sub -grades.

3. Structural  engineering:-

 it is a field of engineering  dealing with the  analysis  and design  of  structure  that support   or resist  loads. The structural engineering  theory is based upon  physical  laws and empirical  knowledge  of structure  performance  of diferent  material  and geometric.

4.Transportation engineering;-

 It is the application  of technology  and  scientific  principles  to the planning, functional design . operation  and  management  of fecilities  for any mode  of transportation  in order to provide  for the  safe , efficient, rapid comfortable, convenience , economically  compatible  movement  of people  and  goods  transport.

5. Water engineering :-

 water engineering  is a sub-set  of  civil engineering  that  focuses on the  study of  how water reacts  in natural  system  such as coast  estuaries  and  river  as well  man-made  environment 

6. Coastal engineering:-

 it is a  branch of civil enginering  concerned with the  specific  demands  posed by  constructing  at or near  the  coast , as well-as  development  of the  cost .

7.Highways engineering:-

It is the branch of civil  enginering  that deal with  the planning  or study about roads  design construction  and maintenance also   including  all type of  travelling system , like airport , Railways station , roads etc...

8. Architecture enginnering :-

 It is also type of civil engineering  that deal with  study and planning  about mapping  draw project  design before construction  . Architecture is very usefull  for all type of construction like Dam , railways, mall, tower building, thermal power plant ,  bridge , tunnels
