Ever wonder "What engineering firms do?"
Well, the answers to these questions may not be that obvious to an average citizen who sees a builder hanging steel for a new building or pouring concrete for a new bridge.
Where does the engineer fit into this process?
In almost every case, an engineering company developed the plans that the builder is following to complete the job. Ensuring that buildings and bridges are structurally stable, that traffic flows smoothly and safely, that runoff from land development activities does not pollute streams, that water is safe to drink -- these are the jobs of the engineer and the engineering companies - people working together Designing the Future of Texas.
