things, machinery, possessions or other elements. (The
Structural Engineering’s Professional Training Manual)
Building is a fixed structure for human occupancy and use.
(Dictionary of Engineering, McGraw Hill)

9. Engineering?
Engineering is the branch of science and technology
concerned with the design, building and use of
engines, machines and structures (Oxford Compact English )
Engineering is creative design and analysis that uses
energy, materials, motion, and information to serve human
needs in innovative ways (An Introduction to Engineering and
Design – 2nd Edition – Philip Kosky , George Wise, Robert
Balmer, William Keat)

10. Engineering? (Cont…)
Engineering is defined as the profession in which a knowledge
of the mathematical and natural sciences gained by
study, experience and practice is applied with judgement to
develop ways to utilize economically the materials and forces
of nature for the benefit of mankind by the Accreditation
Board for Engineering Technology (ABET).
Engineering encompasses science and art, mathematics and
creativity, models and approximations. (John Hopkins

11. Building Engineering?
Building services engineering, technical building
services, architectural engineering, or building
engineering is the engineering of the internal
environment and environmental impact of a building.
It essentially brings buildings and structures to life.

12. Building Engineering?
Building services engineers are responsible for the
design, installation, operation and maintaining of the
mechanical, electrical and public health systems
required for the safe, comfortable and
environmentally friendly operation of modern
buildings.

13. Modern buildings are built to create
better, consistent, and productive
environments in which to work and
to live.

14. Buildings must be designed with
features to provide:
Better lighting
Comfortable space temperature,
Comfortable humidity and air quality
Convenient power and communication capability
High quality sanitation; and
Reliable systems for the protection of life and property.

15. What does a modern building need to do?
Control rain and ground water
Control heat flow, airflow and water vapor flow
Control light and solar radiation
Control noise and vibration
Control contaminants, environmental hazards, odors, etc.
Control fire
Provide strength and rigidity
Be durable
Be aesthetically pleasing
Be economical

16. What Happens When Building Failed?:
We waste energy
We waste materials
People are uncomfortable
Condition are unsafe
Conditions are unhealthy
Components or systems fails
