Publisher's Synopsis
While teaching the subject "Civil Engineering" to non-civil engineering student, the necessity of a single comprehensive text book, meeting the requirements of various universities, has been felt by the teacher and students. An attempt has, therefore, been made to present "Elements of Civil Engineering" primarily for the non-Civil Engineering students to cater to their need for a complete text book highlighting fundamentals of Civil Engineering. Also the students of Civil Engineering will find this book useful for their examinations as a ready reference. Simple language, easy style and elaborate use of diagrams and examples make this text book self-explanatory.
