    Engineering Materials Overview

    • Civil engineering materials are selected based on their properties and the requirements arising from their usage.
    • The selection of materials is based on the existence of suitable properties to fulfill the future usage requirements.
    • Materials are distinguished in civil engineering based on their physical, chemical, and mechanical properties.
    • In civil engineering, materials are mostly studied based on their mechanical properties.
    • Physical properties of civil engineering materials include color, density, specific gravity, porosity, boiling and melting points, and hardness.
    • However, most physical properties are not the primary requirements in civil engineering materials.
    • Mechanical properties of civil engineering materials are essential and include various factors.
    • The Department of Civil Engineering at NED University of Engineering & Technology is involved in studying engineering materials.
    • The focus is on different materials, including natural, manmade, or modified materials.
    • The selection of materials is based on future usage requirements and the presence of suitable properties.
    • Civil engineering materials are distinguished based on their properties and requirements arising from their usage.
