Civil Engineering

Journal Title：Civil Engineering

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.

土木工程为全世界所有人类居住区提供结构，是现代生活的许多方面的重要学科，包括住房、交通以及与工作、学习和休闲相关的主要区域和建筑。在这篇非常简短的介绍中，David Muir Wood 不仅展示了土木工程在文明和城市化历史中的性质和重要性，还展示了其当今的方方面面以及未来的挑战。从在荒岛上建立定居点的挑战开始，列出了土木工程师需要解决的问题，他研究了社会和环境因素以及建造桥梁、隧道、房屋和娱乐区的科学、技术和工艺。他重点介绍了一些主要土木工程师的生活，包括 Brunel 和 Bazalgette，考虑了管理水和能源的挑战，并研究了我们对建筑和环境日益增长的敏感性。
