CIVIL
ENGINEERING
Introduction
• In civil engineering, geology is like the Earth’s
“instruction manual”.
• Geologist also study things like earthquakes and
landslides, so engineers can decide safer structures
and roads.

Title
• Geology in Civil Engineering is all about using Earth’s
secrets to build things safely and protect the
environment.
• Geology plays a significant role in civil engineering as
it provides essential information about the Earth’s
structure, composition, and geological process in a
particular area.
In civil engineering, geology is primarily concerned with the following
