Civil Engineering for the Community

Abstract

  • Civil Engineering for the Community provides a rich collection of tips and recommendations on how to approach and solve the questions most commonly encountered by engineers at the local government level. Randolph explores the uniqueness of the "human equation" and the difficulties that it presents for the engineer serving the public sector.

    By presenting a variety of ideas with examples to illustrate them, this book is a valuable resource for both novice and more experienced civil engineers.
