Benifits of Being Civil Engineer


1. CREATIVITY

Engineers bring Ideas into plans and make them real, Engineers have the unique ability to combine strong technical competence with creative designing. They need to know the ins and outs of building construction, including electrical and plumbing systems and functional workings. However, engineers often love the challenge of making plans that balance functional value with aesthetic appeal. In communities that emphasize contemporary design structure, engineers often renovate or rebuild more creative structures where older, more traditional structures once stood.

2. FIELD WORK

Civil engineers do spend some time in their offices planning, making appointments and participating in meetings. However, much of their work time is spent outdoors at work sites where they monitor buildings and projects and resolve project issues. The nature of the work keeps civil engineers active and on the move. It is also dynamic, which means each project has its own distinct design challenges and operational issues. Engineers also get to work closely with contractors, architects and workers.

3. COMMUNICATION

Civil engineers will have to interact with the contractor, client, architects & workers, which will improve a particulars communication skill. "Every day is not a sunday" and Every man is not the same, Engineer needs to handle all types of charecters, A good communication may lead a exponential grownt in the field of construction.

4. HARD WORKING

"Nothing can be achieved without Hard work" Hard work is a vital charater which will be a habit for a civil engineer, it is so achieved because a civil engineer always works with a dead line, and his works are never a easy job.

5. RISK HANDLING

Civil works are always with obstacles, it may be a problem in the earthwork or may be a diversion from the actual plan due to adverse effects in the site, or else site conditions may lead engineers to take a strong step. Weather wont be always in support of civil engineer. Some time work may be 24*7,  

6. IMPORTANCE

Civil engineers are central figures in community development. Without their unique talents, communities would not grow and prosper. Buildings and roads provide the basis of city infrastructure. Engineers not only provide them, but they use their skills to optimize performance and efficiency of community systems. They also develop water and sewer systems that balance safety standards with delivery of water and sewer processing, which are key functions in city operation and residents' health and comfort.

world's longest cable-stayed bridge-Russky Island, Russia

1. The bridge to Russky Island is the world's longest cable-stayed bridge, with a 1104 m long central span. 2. The bridge also has the second highest pylons after the Millau Viaduct and the longest cable stays. 3. The design of the bridge crossing has been determined on the basis of two primary factors: Shortest coast-to-coast distance in the bridge crossing location 1460 m. Navigable channel depth is up to 50 m. The locality of the bridge crossing construction site is characterized by severe climate conditions: temperatures vary from -31 °C to 37 °C; storms bring winds of up to 36 m/s and waves of up to 6 m in height; and ice formations in winter can be up to 70 cm thick. Total Length : 3100meters Width : 29.5m Height : 320.9m Longest Span  : 1104m Clearence  Above : 70m Building  Cost : $1.1 billionUSD Opened : 2012 Source : Wikepedia, Google
