Each structure is commissioned: Civil engineering works are not like factory products which may be available in a stock at the required time. Each civil engineering work is commissioned i.e. order is placed for each structure before construction works commences. However now-a-days construction components are prefabricated which can be kept in start.
Construction engineering companies never initiate themselves. Thus decisions of construction of various projects are taken by taking into consideration their requirements etc. Hence the civil engineering industries are the masters of its own.
Each structure is built in situ: The civil engineering structure is built at a place of its final use. Sometimes components may be fabricated or built elsewhere. However structure has to suit the particular requirements of the site where it is built.
