Civil engineers are responsible for: Planning, Designing, Overseeing. Various infrastructure projects, such as: Buildings, Bridges. Roads, Dams. Airports, : WaterSupply systems. 1.2. Major Areas in Civil Engineering Civil engineers work in many diversified fields. They plan, design, and supervise construction. The major areas of specialization in civil engineering are: • Construction • Geotechnical • Structural • Transportation • Water Resources • Environment 1.2.1. Construction Engineering The Civil Engineer that specializes in construction must: Know various construction methods and the construction equipment required to build structures.

• Understand what the designer intended and how the structure best reflects the artistic message. • Be a Master at construction management since there are so many people involved in the construction process. * Be able to make accurate cost predictions to ensure the project is funded to completion while satisfying all the original specifications.
