Sir Alan Muir Wood sits in the pantheon of great civil engineers of the twentieth century. In Civil Engineering in Context, Sir Alan Muir Wood draws from his long career to place as he says 'civil engineering in context'. The book contains many personal reminiscences of his life as an engineer from early days as a wartime marine engineer in the Royal Navy, through his more than 25 year career as a Partner and Senior Partner with Halcrow and as a tunnelling engineer of world renown. Civil Engineering in Context also presents Sir Alan's strongly held and sometimes controversial views on how civil engineering as an industry has developed since the pragmatic enterprise of the nineteenth century, through a twentieth century where much of the momentum was lost, and how it should be developing in the twenty-first century. Sir Alan ranges across many topics which directly affect the role of the engineer, including management and the law, systems and design, and ethics and politics. He also discusses his contribution and the wider aspects to some of the major projects of the twentieth century such as the Channel Tunnel. Civil Engineering in Context provides an enlightening insight into the civil engineer and civil engineering through the eyes of one of it most eminent protagonists.

An Introduction to Civil Engineering is intended for students and anyone with an interest in civil engineering . It begins with an introduction to the engineering field as a whole and also provides background information into the history of civil engineering from the ancient times to the present. The text explores the lives of the great civil engineers in history. Readers are also introduced to how great structures were built, the challenges that were faced and the significance of these past achievements to construction today. Construction materials have evolved with time and those progresses are highlighted here. An introduction to the basic types of engineering documents, the nature of multidisciplinary teams, structural and transportation engineering are explored in some detail. The final chapters are concerned with the general process of involved in civil engineering projects from the conceptual to final stages. Here you will find a general description of what motivates safe practices in the workplace and what criteria are used to select a builder. The final chapter very briefly highlights what needs to be done by young graduates and professionals to succeed in the field as a civil engineer.

Engineering, Medical, Chartered Accounting and Law are a few professions that are considered to be good for one’s status, salary and other perquisites. But, just managing one’s admission into professional institutions does not make a person successful professionally. This book has eleven levels. The first five levels explain what engineering is and how one can become a successful professional, for which parents and teachers should contribute significantly. The rest of book takes a civil engineer working on projects like roads, bridges, dams, seaports, airports, industrial and residential buildings etc. on an innovative and interesting professional journey. It explains in minute detail, with examples of possible challenges and solutions for them, covering as many tasks as possible. The construction of major projects has been explained in simple language that best suits a classroom setting.

Civil engineering produces the structures of all human settlements worldwide and is a vital discipline for many aspects modern life, underlying housing, transport, and our major areas and buildings related to work, study, and leisure. In this Very Short Introduction, David Muir Wood demonstrates the nature and importance of civil engineering not only in the history of civilization and urbanization, but its range of facets today, and its challenges for the future. Beginning with the challenge of creating a settlement on a deserted island, which sets out the problems that civil engineers need to solve, he looks at the social and environmental considerations as well as the science, technology, and craft of building bridges, tunnels, houses, and areas of recreation. He highlights the lives of some major civil engineers, including Brunel and Bazalgette, considers the challenges of managing water and energy, and looks at our increasing sensitivity to building and the environment. ABOUT THE SERIES: The Very Short Introductions series from Oxford University Press contains hundreds of titles in almost every subject area. These pocket-sized books are the perfect way to get ahead in a new subject quickly. Our expert authors combine facts, analysis, perspective, new ideas, and enthusiasm to make interesting and challenging topics highly readable.

This book presents an integrated systems approach to the evaluation, analysis, design, and maintenance of civil engineering systems. Addressing recent concerns about the world's aging civil infrastructure and its environmental impact, the author makes the case for why any civil infrastructure should be seen as part of a larger whole. He walks readers through all phases of a civil project, from feasibility assessment to construction to operations, explaining how to evaluate tasks and challenges at each phase using a holistic approach. Unique coverage of ethics, legal issues, and management is also included.

Excerpt from Civil Engineering as Applied in Construction Civil engineering, even in its more restricted signification as applied to works of construction, covers such a wide range that it might reasonably appear somewhat presumptuous for any civil engineer to endeavour to deal with so far-reaching a subject, more especially within the limits of a single volume; and my sole excuse for making the attempt is that nearly ten years ago I unexpectedly received a request from Messrs. Longmans to undertake this onerous task. Possibly the publication of "Achievements in Engineering" in 1891, may have led to the request being addressed to me; but that book, giving descriptions, in a popular form, of some of the most notable engineering works, and only touching incidentally upon the principles involved in their construction for the sake of engineering students, was totally different in scope to this book, which treats primarily of the principles involved in the various branches of engineering construction, and refers to a great variety of works chiefly with the view of illustrating the methods by which these principles receive their practical application. Descriptions of a few important engineering works, in popular language, are comparatively easy of accomplishment; and the facility with which the earlier book was carried out, led me to underrate the difficulties and labour inseparable from the aims of the present book, which, had I appreciated them at the time, would probably have decided me to decline the proposal. Moreover, the leisure at my disposal proved much less than I had anticipated; and, owing to the various professional demands on my time, the preparation of the book has, to my regret, been greatly delayed, so that at times I almost despaired of bringing it to a conclusion; and it was only the courteous consideration accorded me by Messrs. Longmans, and their strongly expressed wish that I should not relinquish the undertaking, that have at last led to the completion of the book according to the scheme originally laid down by me.
