	Civil engineering - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Civil engineering is the broadest of the engineering fields, partly because it is the oldest of all engineering fields.
		Civil engineering was defined to distinguish it from military engineering.
		The main subject of the field of geotechnical engineering is concerned with foundations, soil properties, soil mechanics, compression and swelling of soils, seepage, slopes, embankments, retaining walls, ground and rock anchors, use of synthetic tensile materials in soil structures, soil-structure interaction, and soil dynamics.
