Abstract: Structure engineering is a subset of civil engineering based on fundamental engineering. Physics laws and empirical database of the performance of various geometries and materials as it is directly approaches to the integrity, behavior and serviceability of the structure. The main emphasis of structure engineering is to transfers several forces along with the controlled utilization of any material or element under its serviceable conditions without any severe damage. It helps to make the structure safe, economic, durable and disaster resistant. Structures like roads, tunnels, buildings, power station, dams, bridges etc. are some of major successful outcomes of structural engineering for mankind and play an important part in services to the nation and its progress.
