civil engineers
Infrastructure design professionals
Civil engineers design and oversee construction of infrastructure—roads, bridges, dams, water systems, buildings.
The discipline is "civil" because it serves civilian rather than military purposes, distinguishing it from military engineering.
The civil engineers determined the bridge could handle increased traffic loads.
A civil engineer may specialize in structural, environmental, or transportation engineering.
