Verb TO BE
Basic Civil Engineering

Engineering is the art of converting knowledge into useful practical applications. An

engineer is a person, who plays the key role in this process of conversion. Since
engineering is the profession which serves people, their environment is an important
consideration.

In every society, the role of engineers is to develop technological applications to meet

practical needs. For example, the application of an electrical system is to provide power
to a city, a water wheel is to run a mill; an artificial heart is to prolong life, etc. The
systems that supply our food, water, fuel, power, transportation network, communication
and other conveniences are the products of engineering skill.

Often, there have been difficulties in distinguishing engineers from scientists. It is

difficult to determine where the work of the scientist ends and that of the engineer
begins.
 HOW TO TELL THE TIME?

04:00 p. m. – It’s four o’clock. Or it’s four o’clock p. m.
