"Civil engineering is a branch of engineering that is concerned with the construction design and maintenance of physical infrastructure such as bridges, roads, dams, airports, sewage systems, railways, etc. Many different types of building materials are used for the construction of buildings and structures. Some traditional materials are timber and blockwork. Concrete, cold rolled steet framing, composite materials, structural steel, plastics, veneer, etc. are also used in construction. This book provides comprehensive insights into the fields of civil engineering. It discusses the different materials that are used in construction in extensive detail. It aims to serve as a resource guide for students and experts alike and contribute to the growth of the discipline."--Back cover
