Civil Engineer Vs Architect- Differents in Job, Salary Civil engineer vs Architect- Differents in Job, Salary If you are a civil engineer or an architectural engineer then I think I need not describe about Civil engineer vs Architect to you. Right?. You should already have some knowledge about them. Don’t you? Not to worry even you don’t know, I am here to explain it to you. But, if you are choosing to be graduate among civil engineering and architectural engineering, then you are at the right place to know “Civil engineer vs Architect” In any construction work or creation of structure like a bridge, building, airport, etc there require good knowledge and understanding of civil and architecture engineers. The skill of both professions is most required for the aesthetic and stable structure to be made. If the structure is attractive in look but not safe for landing or using, then there is no point in constructing a structure or if the structure is safe but not well manage for efficient work then also there is no point in constructing the structure. So, in short, you can understand the work of an architectural engineer is to manage and give an aesthetic look to the structure and the work of a civil engineer is to analyze and make a safe structure. However, there are some considerable differences between Civil engineer vs Architect. Let us discuss this. Civil engineer vs Architect S.N Architecture Engineer Civil Engineer Architecture engineers initialize the construction through their design. The After that the remaining designing of structure for 1 work for civil engineers aesthetic purpose means to give to proceed. life to the floors, ceiling, walls, and also manage the way of wiring, lighting, as well They give their creativity or Civil engineers convert vision on the structure with 2 it into reality in a the help of software and practical way drawing Civil engineers evaluate and analyze the structure so that it can meet the Architecture deals with the economy and safety factor physical appearance or of construction.

So, we cannot make Civil engineer vs Architect conflict. I Hope friends, you liked my written article on Civil“ engineer vs Architect” and remains helpful. Like it? Please Share it!!

  • Scales Types of Scales Civil Engineering Scale
    Scales • The purpose of scales is to allow an engineer, architect, technician or contractor to determine scaled measurements from drawings or maps very quickly and easily. • Drawings and maps are drawn to different scales such as: 1” = 100’, 1” = 1’-0” or 1:2 (half size). Types of Scales Civil Engineering Scale 1 Architect’s Scale Metric Scale 2 Civil Engineer’s Scale • Full Divided Scale • 1” is divided into equal decimal units of 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60 and 80 divisions. • For example, 1” = 100’ is a typical scale used for Civil Engineering Drawings. This means that 1” on the drawing represents 100’ in the real world. Scale & Size • 10 scale represents full size in decimal inches. 1” on paper represents 1” in real life. Hence the name “full size”. • 20 scale represents half scale where 1” on a drawing represents 2” in real life. • 40 scale represents quarter size where 1” on a drawing represents 4” in real life. 3 Applications • Civil Engineers typically design large things such as, bridges, roads, buildings, shopping centers etc. Therefore typical scales used include: 1” = 100’ for plan views of highway designs and 1” = 5’ vertical and 1” = 100’ horizontal for profile views. Section views are typically 1” = 5’ vertical and 1” = 10’ horizontal. Other Applications • Sometimes scales are used to compute quantities based on a graphical analysis. When this is the case units of measurement other than length are often used. Examples include: • 1” = 10 kips, 1” = 2000 volts, 1” = 50 buses, 1” = 20 GHz and 1” = 40 people. • Always remember that your answer will be recorded in a decimal format for the CE scale.

  • An Estimable Resource in the Actual Crisis of Civil Engineering?

Dragados, 2003. History of construction: An estimable resource in the actual crisis of civil engineering? Wemer Lorenz RISE AND DECLINE -A FIVE-MINUTE HISTORY OF THE CIVIL ENGINEER In the year 1762, the librarian of the Roman cardinal Albani, Johann Joachim Winckelmann, born in the North German town of Stendal, published a pamphlet titled «Anmerkungen über die Baukunst der alten Tempel zu Girgenti in Sizilien» (Remarks on the Architecture of the 01d Temples at Girgenti in Sicily) (Winckelmann 1762). In no time, this publication became the manifesto of the young neo-c1assicist movement in Europe. Evaluating his own systematic research of antique architecture, Winckelmann ca11s it the most appropriate model for any form of architecture, inc1uding contemporary. He distinguishes c1early between the «Wesentliche» (essential) and the «ZierJichkeit in der Baukunst» (daintiness of architecture). The c1ear distinction signifies an abrupt turning away from the previous baroque perception of architecture. The concept of the «essential» introduces construction as a defining parameter into architectural theory. According to Winckelmann architecture results primarily from constructive considerations. Noteworthy also is the context of his publication. Only a few years prior, in an Italian publication from 1748, one can find the term «inginiero civile» and in 1768, the term civil engineer is used for the first time in England, where the first «Society of Civil Engineers of the Kingdom» is founded in 1771. The Figure 1 civil engineer is born.

It begins with an idea and culminates in a structure that may serve its occupants for several decades, even centuries. Like the manufacturing of products, building construction requires an ordered and planned assembly of materials. It is, however, far more complicated than product manufacturing. Buildings are assembled outdoors by a large number of diverse constructors and artisans on all types of sites and are subject to all kinds of weather conditions. Additionally, even a modest-sized building must satisfy many performance criteria and legal constraints, requires an immense variety of materials, and involves a large network of design and production firms. Building construction is further complicated by the fact that no two buildings are identical; each one must be custom built to serve a unique function and respond to its specific context and the preferences of its owner, user, and occupant.

  • Civil Engineer Iii
    CIVIL ENGINEER III JOB CODE 20230 Effective Date: Rev. 6/99 DISTINGUISHING FEATURES OF THE CLASS: The fundamental reason this classification exists is to apply professional engineering knowledge and skills to a variety of difficult civil engineering and architectural functions within various City departments, performing work in the office, field and laboratory. Assignments are broad in scope and require the use of independent judgment and initiative in making technical decisions of considerable difficulty. In addition, the project and program management responsibilities are of equal importance since this class is responsible for the direction of complex capital improvement projects and other major programs. Examples of projects include the design and construction of streets, bridges, water and sewer pipelines, water and sewage treatment plants, airport buildings and infrastructure, public buildings, parking garages, sports and cultural facilities, and parks. Projects encompass multiple disciplines, such as civil, architectural, structural, mechanical, electrical, environmental, hydraulic, and fire protection. Incumbents typically oversee and review studies and design work performed by outside consultants, although some positions apply their professional registration seal to plans and specifications prepared in-house under their direct supervision. Supervision is exercised over the classes of Civil Engineers I and II, Project Managers, Engineering Technicians, and Inspectors and other employees.
