Professional IssuesThe forces driving civil engineering today go well beyond bringing new technologies to bear to meet societal needs alone. Professional practice issues are dramatically reshaping when, where, and how civil engineers do their jobs; the visibility and scope of the profession; and how civil engineers are compensated for their contributions.
This brochure can serve as your starting point in your own investigation of the critical professional practice issues:
How to Work Effectively with Consulting Engineers: Getting the Best Project at the Right Price (ASCE Manuals and Reports on Engineering Practice No. 45, revised edition) Manual 45 addresses the procurement of engineering services for a quality project. This guide outlines such things as the functions of the consulting engineer in serving a client, the types of services usually offered, and the various methods of determining compensation for engineering services.
Guide to Hiring and Retaining Great Civil Engineers (ASCE Manuals and Reports on Engineering Practice No. 103) The need for civil engineers has outstripped supply, and it has become increasingly difficult for firms to retain civil engineers -- particularly the best ones -- and recruit additional civil engineers to meet staffing needs. This manual will help you to improve your organization's hiring practices and keep the good engineers you already have.
Quality in the Constructed Project, Second Edition (ASCE Manuals and Reports on Engineering Practice No. 73) Manual No. 73 provides information and recommendations on principles and procedures that are effective in enhancing the quality of constructed projects.
