Do civil engineers design anything?

Wow. Generally, I’m going to say no. Even those building civils and architects both work on the same building, it’s really two different jobs. Architects are your dreamers. They are the ones who worry about what it’s going to look like and if it’s aesthetically pleasing. Civils are your practical, down to earth types. They have to reign in the architects at times, because they are the ones who have to make sure it will stand up and work in reality. Being a licensed architect involves a whole different set of tests and education than civil. But, if there are any building companies that let civil engineers have a say in how it looks, that I really don’t know. I believe @MaineLonghorn works more in this field.
