Journal Title: Current Trends in Civil & Structural Engineering (CTCSE) - Year 2019, Vol 3, Issue 1
Abstract
Civil Engineering is the oldest engineering discipline alongside military engineering, given that archeologists found constructed temples 11,000 years old. Ancient Middle Eastern, Chinese, Greek, Roman and various other civilizations in Asia, Africa and the Americas have left us with remarkable constructed systems made from masonry, wood, iron, steel, concrete and prestressed concrete.
