What is Structural Engineering?

Natural forces such as wind, waves and earthquakes can wreck havoc on built structures; as can the stresses caused by the modern environment, such as car and foot traffic.

A structural engineer devises the best way to build a structure so that it stands up to these forces.

Structural engineers often work with architects, builders and those in mechanical, electrical and chemical engineering.
