This field of engineering deals with the analysis and design of structures that support or resist loads. Structural engineering theory is based on physical laws and empirical knowledge of the structural performance of different materials and geometries.

Civil engineering is everything you see that’s been built around us. It’s about roads and railways, schools, offices, hospitals, water and power supply and much more. Things we take for granted but would find life very hard to live without.

Designing structures that are outside the basic scope of Civil Engineering and Structural Engineering. This typically includes designing of specially engineered materials.

Prepares mechanical or digital drawings, diagrams or blueprints and/or models of various products or structures to guide product makers, architects or construction personnel in the manufacture, implementation or building process.

Once you have (hopefully) received Planning Permission, you need to consider the requirement for approval under the Building Regulations. These plans need to be in far more detail than those required for basic Planning Permission approval.

The type and number of drawings you need to submit with your planning application will vary according to the nature of the proposal and the type of application. After the Planning Permission, you need follow for approval under the Building Regulations.
