Hard engineering refers to the construction of physical structures to defend against erosive power of waves To protect a coast from erosion‚ people have built seawalls in front of a cliff or along the coast. A seawall is usually made of concrete. It acts as a buffer and absorbs energy of breaking waves especially during storms where the waves are strong‚ thus protecting the coast. A seawall shields and protects the coast from the direct impact of the incoming waves‚ thus reducing erosion. However

Civil engineering is not too hard because you have different position‚ different branches. When you start going to school‚ to take 2 or 3 classes for each branch‚ and when you graduate‚ you can tell which one you enjoy the most‚ but basically with that degree‚ you can do so many things. Engineering is very practical‚ and it’s different every day. At the beginning‚ you will learn‚ but after that‚ it’s all about solving problems. Every day‚ you do something different‚ like different problems‚ different
