Engineered Construction

Engineered construction refers to projects that are planned and designed by engineers rather than having architects involved in them. They normally are functional structures that provide a service to society and that require “heavy” materials such as earth, rock, concrete, and steel. Due to their immense size they are usually publicly funded projects that require large amounts of heavy construction equipment. The main categories of engineered projects are highways (these are covered under Heavy/Highway Construction), dams, sewage treatment plants, pump stations, airfields, and electrical transmission stations.
