Civil engineers create, improve and protect the environment
in which we live. They plan, design and oversee construction and maintenance of
building structures and infrastructure, such as roads, railways, airports,
bridges, harbours, dams, irrigation projects, power plants, and water and
sewerage systems. They also design and build tall buildings and large
structures that can withstand all weather conditions – you may want to take a look at these inspiring and iconic examples
brought to you by the Institute of Civil Engineers.
