Heavy engineering refers to the branch of engineering that deals with the design, construction, and maintenance of large structures and machinery. This field often involves the use of robust materials and advanced technologies to create products like bridges, dams, and industrial equipment. Heavy engineering projects typically require significant investment and skilled labor due to their complexity and scale. Common applications of heavy engineering include the construction of highways, railways, and power plants. Professionals in this field, such as civil engineers and mechanical engineers, work together to ensure that these large projects are safe, efficient, and sustainable, meeting the needs of society while minimizing environmental impact.
