STRUCTURAL ENGINEERING
Structural
engineering is
mainly a sub-division of civil engineering in which structural
engineers are trained to understand, predict, and calculate the stability,
strength and rigidity of built structures for building and non
building
structures,
to develop designs and integrate their design with that of other designers, and
to supervise construction of projects on site.
Structural engineers
are responsible
for
engineering design and structural analysis.
Entry-level structural
engineers
may
design the individual structural elements of a structure.
More
experienced engineers
may be responsible for the structural design and integrity of an entire system,
such as a building.
Structural engineers
often specialize in particular fields, such as bridge engineering, building
engineering, pipeline engineering, industrial structures, Cold form steel
structures or special mechanical structures
such
as vehicles,
ships
or aircraft.
The complexity
of modern structures often requires a great deal of creativity from the
engineer in order to ensure the structures support and resist the loads they
are subjected to. A
structural
engineer will typically have a four or five year undergraduate degree, followed
by a minimum of three years of professional practice before being considered
fully qualified.
