The Definition of Civil Engineering [PDF]
Science, 1896 There is an error in my paper on the Artistic Element in Engineering which I should like to correct. Following the lead of other writers, I have ascribed the classic definition of civil engineering to Telford instead of to Tredgold, whom I have recently learned was its author. See R. R. Gazette of December 28, 1894,
