A civil engineer is a professional who designs, builds, and maintains infrastructure projects such as: 1. Roads and highways 2. Bridges and tunnels 3. Buildings and skyscrapers 4. Water treatment plants and distribution systems 5. Dams and reservoirs 6. Airports and ports 7. Public transportation systems Civil engineers work on: 1. Planning and designing projects 2. Conducting site investigations and surveys 3. Developing and testing materials 4. Managing construction teams and budgets 5. Ensuring safety and quality control 6. Collaborating with architects, contractors, and government agencies Subfields of civil engineering include: 1. Structural engineering 2. Transportation engineering 3. Water resources engineering 4. Geotechnical engineering 5. Environmental engineering 6. Construction management Civil engineers use various tools and techniques, including: 1. Computer-aided design (CAD) software 2. Building information modeling (BIM) 3. Finite element analysis 4. Surveying and mapping technologies 5. Materials testing and inspection The goal of civil engineering is to create safe, sustainable, and efficient infrastructure that benefits society and supports economic growth.

Eduardo Davila, EIT, is our newest hire as Engineer III in the Bridge Design department in South Bend! He brings bridge inspector experience, as well as experience creating as-built drawings for bridges lacking plans, instrumenting bridges, load rating, and designing concrete foundations for telecommunication antennas. Also, Eduardo’s graduate work involves research in adobe masonry and extensive work experience with UHPC as a material. In his new role, Eduardo will contribute to bridge inspections, develop inspection reports, and prepare plans, specifications, and various documents for bridge and vertical structure projects, which involves designing, analyzing, and interpreting data, as well as coordinating aspects of the engineering work. Welcome to #LifeAtLochmueller, Eduardo! Get to know Eduardo more 👇 What led you to your career path? “During my time at New Mexico State University, I had the opportunity to participate in their six-month bridge inspection co-op. This experience solidified my existent structural interest, particularly with bridges. As a graduate student, I continued engaging in regular tasks, such as scanning, inspecting, and load rating bridges.” #WhyWednesday What is your all-time favorite TV show or movie? “It’s impossible to pick just one, but I’ll go with The Matrix, V for Vendetta, La La Land, Peaky Blinders, and The Office.” This or that: Bridge rehabilitation or replacement? “Both – the most cost-effective option, unless it contains historical importance, then rehabilitation.” #newhire #welcome #welcometotheteam #newemployee #bridgedesign #civilengineering
