  2. V-model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/V-Model

    [3] [4] [7] This has proven to be an important aspect of the model. The expansion of the model to a dual-Vee concept is treated in reference. [3] As the V-model is publicly available many companies also use it. In project management it is a method comparable to PRINCE2 and describes methods for project management as well as methods for system ...

    Construction engineering, also known as construction operations, [1] is a professional subdiscipline of civil engineering that deals with the designing, planning, construction, and operations management of infrastructure such as roadways, tunnels, bridges, airports, railroads, facilities, buildings, dams, utilities and other projects. [2]

  5. Structural engineering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_engineering

    Structural engineering is a sub-discipline of civil engineering in which structural engineers are trained to design the 'bones and joints' that create the form and shape of human-made structures. Structural engineers also must understand and calculate the stability , strength, rigidity and earthquake-susceptibility of built structures for ...

  7. History of structural engineering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_structural...

    In the 15th and 16th centuries and despite lacking beam theory and calculus, Leonardo da Vinci produced many engineering designs based on scientific observations and rigour, including a design for a bridge to span the Golden Horn. Though dismissed at the time, the design has since been judged to be both feasible and structurally valid [7]

  8. Project delivery method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_delivery_method

    DBB with Construction Management is a modified version of the Design-bid-build approach With partially completed contract documents, an owner will hire a construction manager to act as an agent. As substantial portions of the documents are completed, the construction manager will solicit bids from suitable subcontractors.

  9. Sandwich theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sandwich_theory

    The most commonly used sandwich theory is linear and is an extension of first-order beam theory. The linear sandwich theory is of importance for the design and analysis of sandwich panels , which are of use in building construction, vehicle construction, airplane construction and refrigeration engineering.
