INTRODUCTIONIn the beginning, engineering was directed toward military applications. The advent of“Civil Engineering” was the first step to put engineering to civilian use. Earlyengineering activities were physically demanding and only suitable for men. This is notto say that engineering activities were not mentally demanding as they involvedcalculation and design based on science and mathematics. The discipline, therefore,attracted men with
