Construction engineering refers to the engineering entity formed by the construction of various types of residential buildings and their ancillary facilities, as well as the installation activities of associated infrastructure, pipelines, and equipment. The term "residential buildings" specifically denotes structures with roofs, beams, columns, walls, foundations, and internal spaces that satisfy human needs for production, living, learning, and public activities.
Construction engineering encompasses the planning, surveying, design, construction, completion, and installation of infrastructure such as pipelines and equipment for new construction, renovation, or expansion of residential buildings and associated structures. It also refers to the construction projects of various types of buildings, commonly known as construction works. This portion of investment requires mobilization of resources and active construction activities to achieve completion.
The construction projects of "residential buildings" include factories, theaters, hotels, shops, schools, hospitals, and residences, among others. Their construction, renovation, or expansion requires mobilization of resources and active construction activities to achieve completion. "Associated structures and facilities" refer to ancillary facilities such as water towers, bicycle sheds, and swimming pools that are complementary to residential buildings.
"Installation of infrastructure such as pipelines and equipment" refers to activities related to the installation of electrical, water supply and drainage, HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning), communication, smart systems, and elevator systems that are complementary to residential buildings and their associated facilities.
Basic Attributes: Construction engineering is an important branch of civil engineering. Broadly speaking, construction engineering and civil engineering belong to the same concept. Therefore, the basic attributes of construction engineering are generally consistent with those of civil engineering, including several aspects:
Comprehensive Construction: The construction of a project typically involves three stages: surveying, design, and construction. It requires the application of disciplines such as engineering geological survey, hydrogeological survey, engineering surveying, soil mechanics, engineering mechanics, engineering design, building materials, construction equipment, construction machinery, construction economics, as well as construction technology and construction organization. Electronic computing and mechanical testing technologies are also essential. Hence, construction engineering is a broadly integrated discipline.
Social Significance: Construction engineering develops in parallel with human society. The constructed facilities reflect the socioeconomic, cultural, scientific, and technological developments of different historical periods. Thus, construction engineering becomes one of the witnesses of social and historical development.
Practicality: Construction engineering involves a wide range of fields, hence influencing factors are inevitably numerous and complex. This strong reliance on practical application characterizes construction engineering.
Unity of Technology, Economy, and Architectural Art: Construction engineering serves human needs and thus integrates the socioeconomic, technological, and cultural arts of a certain historical period. It represents the unity of technology, economy, and artistic creation.
Construction Commencement: The commencement of construction engineering requires obtaining a construction permit, approval of construction organization design by the chief supervising engineer, and having a complete project team including constructors, cost estimators, construction supervisors, quality inspectors, materials managers, and safety officers, all possessing necessary certifications. Site conditions must include adequate infrastructure for water, electricity, roads, and leveled ground. The construction unit submits an application for commencement, which is approved by the chief supervising engineer before construction can commence.
Common Tools: Common tools used in various construction trades include trowels, wheelbarrows, mortar mixers, stools, steel tape measures for masonry work; hand saws, hammers, power saws, electric planers, homemade planers for carpentry work; tying hooks, bending machines, welding machines, cutting machines for rebar work; concrete mixers, welding machines for concrete work, etc.
This translation captures the essence of the original article on construction engineering, highlighting its interdisciplinary nature, social significance, practical application, and the tools commonly used in construction activities.
