Civil Engineering
Civil Engineering is a profession of designing and executing structural works that serve the general public, like houses, buildings, roads, etc. A Civil Engineer is an engineer trained in the design and construction of public works, such as bridges or dams, and other large facilities.

How can the application of mathematics be used to solve engineering problems?
The role and application of engineering science is important based on inventing and creatinig new ideas. It is from these roles in engineering sciene , we develop and enhance answers to our problems. we do this such that experiments are carried out and prove whether or not our predictions were made accurately or inaccurately..
What kind of bridge is the Millennium Bridge?
There are two bridges in the UK that have millennium in the title!
- The Millennium Bridge in London is a gravity anchored suspension bridge for pedestrian use.
- The Millennium Bridge in Gateshead is a tilting arch bridge, again for pedestrian use.

Often a borrower needs a bridge loan to facilitate the financing a property for a short period of time. A bridge loan is a specially designed form of financing that is used when a borrower is expecting to sell a property quickly or refinance it within the near future.
Well constructors built the Hoover Dam with concrete and mixing stuff.
Construction of Hoover Dam began on April 20, 1931, the dam was completed on March 1, 1936.
What are the uses of steel rod reinforcement?
Concrete's best strength rating is in compression, as in equal force from either side. Its weakest rating is in its shear strength, as in force in different areas like snapping a pencil in your hands. To increase concretes shear strength, re-inforcing steel bar is used because of its high shear strength characteristics.
What is the most famous bridge in London is called?
It is called Tower Bridge.
Or you might be talking about the one that was on Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, which is the wobbly bridge, but it's proper name is the Millenium Bridge.
What determines the amount of runoff?
One of the factors that determine whether water infiltrates is the nature of the surface. Another factor that determines is the elevation of the surface or its shape.
How much sand and aggregate required for m25 grade concrete?
One cubic metre of concrete weighs 2.5 Tonnes.
Typically, 1m3 of concrete is made up of 350Kg of cement, 700Kg of sand, 1,200Kg of chippings and 150 Litres of water.
What are the most famous cantilever bridges?

How much do civil engineers make per year?
Sometimes i ask myself, "why m i so smart ?" :)
Lol, just kidding
Civil engineers had average yearly wages of $78,560 in May 2008.
According to a 2009 survey, people with a bachelor's degree in civil engineering started at $52,048 a year on average.
Your soo Welcome !!
What is the formula to calculate steel tmt bar weight per meter sow with example?
Formula for steel bar weight per meter = D2/162 where D is diameter of bar
It depends on its strength. Usually, concrete is 6.7 to 9 times stronger in compression.
To be exact, tensile strength of concrete is equal to 0.7 times square root of its compressive strength. For common concretes with compressive strength of 20 to 40 MPa, it is about 3 to 4.4 MPa of tensile strength respectively.
How much does liquid asphalt weigh per gallon?
Liquid asphalt has a specific gravity range from 0.98 to 1.02. Typically, a specific gravity of 1.0 is used. This can vary with the type of asphalt and the temperature of the asphalt. A specific gravity of 1.0 is the same as water measured at the reference temperature of 60 degrees Fahrenheit. This specific gravity of 1.0 corresponds to a density (or specific weight) of 1 gram per cubic centimeter (1 g/cm3) or 62.4 pounds per cubic foot (62.4 lb/ft3) or 8.34 pounds per gallon (8.34 lb/gal)
What are advantages of deep strip foundation?
Narrow strip or Deep strip footing
This type foundation is used for normal soil and normal loads which just need 0.9m dept cheep in cost construction.
The essential feature of the narrow strip foundation is that the trench is too narrow to be dug by labours working in trench. It depends for its success in the ability of a mechanical excavator, such as a light tractor-mounted back-actor with a narrow bucket to dig the trench, which must be self-support until it can be backfill with concrete.
It can't be economical be use in very soft clays or water bearing sand which support by close timbering.
From Lewis Telfer
A truss is an arrangement of structural members that are connected together to form a rigid framework. In most trusses, members are arranged in interconnected triangles.
A truss is also a medical term for a male hernia support.
Advantages and disadvantages of truss bridges?
Advantages: Very sturdy, can have several cracks in structure before breaking
disadvantages: best for short distances, not attractive, hard to maintain
What is the difference between grade 60 and grade 40 steel bars?
Grade 60 has a tensile stress of 60000 psi while Grade 40 has 40000.
Grade 60 steel rusts faster than grade 40.
grade 60 bar can be identified by the word 60 which should have printed on that while on grade 40 no no will be printed or written and we can identify this by counting the lines on steel as well.
If there are 3 lines longitudinally on the bar its is of 60 grade and if 2 lines longitudinally it will be identified as 40 grade.
What is formula to calculate the weight of steel bar?
volume of steel multiplied by7850= wt of steel in kgs.
Please note that wt of 1 Cum steel is 7850 kg
Volume of steel bar can be calculated = cross-sectional area of bar X length
cross-sectional area of Bar= pie x d X d/4 (where d is diameter of bar)
What is better civil or electronics for engineering?
Both of the fields are equally prospective and good. However the field of Civil Engineering is quite rewarding and interesting. Civil Engineering has contributed many rewarding projects to the society development and requires more skills to join in.
Is civil engineering hard or easy?
Yes. Any of the engineering majors are challenging as they require extensive math, physics, and other science related classes. It takes a lot of dedication and hard work to become an engineer. That is why they are paid better than other 4 year degrees.
It also depends on your hardwork, motivation and interest.
Where is the tallest bridge in the US?
By the way, we have the tallest bridge that supports cars to go over it, but Colorada beats us with being the tallest bridge(not a bridge that supports cars). New River Gorge Bridge is still a better bridge though ;3.
