Engineering construction involves the planning, design, and execution of various infrastructure projects. This includes the construction of buildings, bridges, roads, dams, and other structures. Civil engineers play a crucial role in ensuring that these projects are not only aesthetically pleasing but also safe, sustainable, and in compliance with regulations.

Engineering operations encompass the ongoing management and maintenance of constructed infrastructure. This involves monitoring the performance of structures, implementing repairs and upgrades, and ensuring that they meet evolving safety and environmental standards.

The integration of construction and operations is essential for the entire life cycle of infrastructure projects. This approach, often referred to as "Design-Build-Operate-Maintain" (DBOM), emphasizes collaboration between designers, constructors, and operators from the project's inception
