THE CIVIL ENGINEERING PROFESSION

What is Civil Engineering?

Civil engineering is "the modification of nature to create and improve human habitats." Civil engineers work toward an ideal that is "a standard of perfection, beauty, or moral and physical excellence, especially as an aim of attainment or realization." Civil engineers strive to "match deep functionality with aesthetics in every manifestation of the profession." Engineers should be mindful that there is a "moral compact between the engineer and world society."

"You see things; and you say "Why?"

But I dream things that never were; and I say "Why not?""

George Bernard Shaw

THE ART AND SCIENCE OF SURVEYING

What is surveying?

Surveying is the art and science of measuring and mapping land. It’s a profession that dates back to the ancient Egyptians, who used it to establish farm boundaries and build the pyramids. A vital part of the design and construction process, today surveying affects most everything in our daily lives.

      The profession of surveying is complex, encompassing various aspects that include issues relating to mathematics, technology, history, law, geology, forestry and hydrology. Surveyors validate and process data that other professionals, such as engineers, lawyers and architects, rely upon. A surveyor is a detective, using a combination of field work, research, and knowledge of law and history to solve a complicated puzzle.

Computer Aided Drafting

(AutoCAD)

AutoCAD is a very powerful design and drafting software tool. It provides a means to create objects (entities) in a computer to represent the physical objects of the real world that come to mind and entered into AutoCAD from the designer or the drafter. AutoCAD drawings can be sent to a printing device to create a hardcopy (paper copy) of the objects created in AutoCAD.

No project is too small. If you need to have it drawn up, we will be happy to help.
