Introduction to

Civil Engineering
Engineering
• Ingenious means ‘Clever person’ in Latin

• Engineer cleverly uses the available natural


resources for the benefit of mankind

• Provides comfort to mankind and makes life


comfortable.
Civil Engineering

• Oldest branch of engineering, next to Military engineering.

• A professional engineering discipline that deals with the


analysis, design, construction and maintenance of
infrastructural facilities such as buildings, bridges, dams,
roads etc.

• John Smeaton was the first self proclaimed Civil Engineer


who built Eddystone Light House in 1771.

Construction Technology
& Management
• Deals with planning, scheduling and
execution of construction activity related to
a project.
• Comprises of men, material, time and
money management.
• Emphasis will be on new construction
practice, use of appropriate and local
technology, safety of men and material,
utilization of marginal materials etc.

Engineering
• To assess the quality
of soil or rock to carry
the structure
• Proper knowledge of
geotechnical engg
is necessary for
safety and stability
of structures
Hydraulics, Water Resource & Irrigation
Engineering
• Irrigation engineering deals with water management for
agriculture purpose.
• Dams are constructed at the desired locations to store water
in reservoir when the supply from river is good and to utilize
for useful purpose during draught. Canals are built for the
purpose. During excess input, water is allowed to main river
through the body of dam to avoid flooding.
