CIVIL ENGENEERING
Civil
engineering is a branch of engineering that studies on how to design, build, renovate not only buildings and infrastructure, but also
include the environment for the benefit of human life.
Civil
engineering has a broad scope, in which knowledge of mathematics, physics, chemistry, biology, geology, environment until the computer has the role of each. Civil engineering developed in line with the level of human needs and
their movements, to be able to say this knowledge can turn a forest into a big
city.
The branches of civil engineering
·
Structural:
The branch that studies the structural problems of the materials used for
construction. A form of the
building may be made of multiple choice types of materials such as steel,
concrete, wood, glass or other materials. Each of these materials has the characteristics of each. Science field studying the structural properties of the material can be
selected so that eventually the material which is suitable for the type of the
building. In this field
studied more in depth issues related to the structural design of buildings,roads, bridges, tunnels of the construction of the foundation until the building is ready for use.
·
Geotechnical: The branch that studies the structure and properties of a wide range of soil and rock in
supporting a building that would stand on it. Its scope can be either a field investigation that the investigation
into the circumstances of land of an area, laboratory investigations and
construction planning of soil and rock, such as: embankment (embankment),
excavation (excavation), tunnel soft ground (soft soil tunnel), the tunnel rock
(rock / mountain tunnel), dam soil / rock (earth dam, rock fill dam), and
others.
·
Construction
Management: Branches who studied the problem in construction projects relating
to the economy, job scheduling, return on capital, the cost of the project, all matters
relating to law and licensing of building up the organization of work in the
field so that the building is expected to be completed on time.
·
Hydrology:
The branch that studies the water, distribution,
control and issue. Include this
area among other branches of hydrology (with respect to weather, rainfall,
water flow of a river, etc.), hydraulics (the material properties of water, the
water pressure, the driving force of the water, etc.) and waterworks such as ports, irrigation, reservoirs / dams ( dam), the canal.
·
Environmental Engineering: The branch that studies issues and environmental issues. This field include, among others, the provision of clean water
infrastructure, sewage and waste management, river pollution, noise pollution
and air until recovery techniques.
·
Transportation: Branch learn about the transportation system in the
planning and implementation. This field
include, among others, construction and management of roads,construction of airports, terminals, stations and management.
·
Informatics Civil
Engineering: The new branch
that studies the application of
Computer for computation / modeling a system in development or research
project. This field include, among others, exemplified in
the form of modeling Structures (Structural of material or CAD), modeling the
movement of ground water or waste, environmental modeling with GIS technology (Geographic information system).
Breadth
branch of civil engineering makes it very versatile in the world of work. Professions
obtained from an expert in this field include: designing / implementing the
construction / maintenance of roads, bridges, tunnels, buildings, airports,
traffic (land, sea, air), the network system of canals, drainage, irrigation,
housing, building , minimization of earthquake losses, environmental
protection, water supply, ground surveys, the
financial concept of the project, project management and so on. All
aspects of life in charge of civil engineering.
Differences
of architects, lies in the position of civil engineering experts in a project. Architects
donated design, ideas, possible implementation of the development on
paper.Results of the draft subsequently submitted to the expert staff in civil
engineering for the construction work. This
stage, a civil engineering improvement / suggestion of implementation planning,
coordination of the project, observing the course of the project to fit the plan. In
addition, civil engineering experts also developing the concept of financial
and project management on matters that affect the course of the project.
Civil
engineering experts are not only dealing with the construction of a building
project, but in other fields as related to informatics, allowing for memodelisasi a form with the help of a CAD program,
modeling the damage caused by earthquakes, floods. This is
particularly important in the developed countries as a benchmark for the
feasibility of building a building that has a vital risk can be claimed many
human beings as a nuclear reactor or dam, in case of failure of technical
planning. The design of the building is typically modeled in the computer with the
given factors such as the earthquake threat of the building and collapse the
structure of the material. Role of civil engineering experts are also still in effect even though
the construction phase of a building has been completed, such as maintenance of
facilities located in the building.

1. What is Civil
Engineering?
Answer : Civil engineering is a branch of engineering that studies on how to design, build,
renovate not only buildings and infrastructure, but also include the environment for the
benefit of human life.
2. When a civil engineering
improvement / suggestion of implementation planning, coordination of the
project, observing the course of the project to fit the plan?
Answer: After Architects donated design, ideas, possible
implementation of the development on paper and civil engineering improvement /
suggestion of implementation planning, coordination of the project, observing
the course of the project to fit the plan.
3.
Who improvement /
suggestion of implementation planning, coordination of the project, observing
the course of the project to fit the plan?
Answer : Civil
Engineering
4. Why Civil
engineering experts are not only dealing with the construction of a building
project, but in other fields as related to informatics, allowing for
memodelisasi a form with the help of a CAD program, modeling the damage caused
by earthquakes, floods?
Answer :
Because this is particularly important in the
developed countries as a benchmark for the feasibility of building a building
that has a vital risk can be claimed many human beings as a nuclear reactor or
dam, in case of failure of technical planning
