History of Civil Engineering

Sumber : www.engineeringcivil.com/history

Civil Engineering is a professional engineering discipline that deals with the design,construction, and maintenance of the physical and built environment,including works like roads,bridges,canals,dams,and buildings. First “Civil Engineer” was an Englishman,John Smeaton in 1761.Fall of 1886,”State College” (UK) established civil engineering degree. John Wesley Gunn of Lexington received first Civil Engineering degree from A & M College (UK) in 1890. Civil engineers have saved more lives than all the doctors in history — development of clean water and sanitation systems. Millennia ago when the pyramids of the Mayan and Egyptian empires were building pyramids, the people designing and supervising the construction of the pyramids must have been an engineer. Certainly, those endowed with the responsibility of devising ways to solve the day to day problems of construction, transportation, water irrigation, city planning were engineers. The engineers of the past often worked on technical problems of their day by using mechanics, available materials and technicians of the day and often worked in areas that ranged from mechanical, military inventions to architecture, which involved the design of aesthetic structure and the overall shape and form of structures.

Ribuan tahun yang lalu ketika piramida Maya dan kerajaan Mesir dibangun,orang-orang merancang dan mengawasi pembangunan piramida haruslah seorang insinyur. Para Insinyur dimasa lalu sering memecahkan masalah teknis mereka menggunakan mekanik,material yang tersedia dan teknisi harian,dan mereka sering bekerja pada area  jangkauan  mekanik, penemuan militer pada arsitektur,yang berhubungan dengan estetika struktur dari disain dan bentuk keseluruhan dari bentuk strukturnya.
