CIVIL ENGINEERING BLOG

The blog article was that I read was going over some of the step by step procedures that are taking place when engineers are constructing a building. The author's position in the blog was informing people about some of the steps that go on during a job. "As a site engineer, in a construction porject of high rise buidlings, you carry a lot of responsibility to finish the project in time and with cent percent accuracy." The thesis that the author uses is very true because there when disigning or constucting a high rise building the engineers have to be 100 % accurate with all of there calculations before anything can begin to get done, and most likely there will will be a scedule that they will have to follow to get their project finished inn a certain time. There isn't any new technology or new discovery discribed in this blog, but it does talk about brick work and casting which has been around for a significant amount of time but is always improving in better ways every year. This article does give you an aspect of a working engineer by giving a step by step understanding of what is done during brick work and casting. Every blogger serves a different purpose and have their own reasons behind why they are blogging, After going over this blogging article I think that the author spends time blogging to imform poeple that are studying to be engineerings on some tips about what they will have to do. I honestly don't think that this blog was that professional but it still would be able to help others with information if they persue a career in civil engineering.

Welcome to my blog

Hey Guys, My name is Jamal Lewis and this is my first blog for the eng 259 technical writing class. My educational and careers goals are to first graduate from college with a masters degree in civil engineering/business and finance. I plan on following in my fathers footsteps in becoming an entrepreneur and using my degree to work for my self by opening my own businesses. I'm not majoring in computer science but that was always one thing that I was interested in. I don't believe that a lot of other students at LaGuardia have the same relationship with technology as I do because I believe all people use technology in different ways to benefit themselves for example I plan on using technology for real estate business purposes. I do enjoy reading and writing because it helps me to become more intelligent, each day of my life I try to learn something new because it would only help me to become more successful in life. I like to read the Forbes Magazine,Real Estate articles,Articles on entrepreneurs, religious books, and the bible as well. I write notes in my phone every so often, texting,letters,and receipts.
