Engineering is a process used to solve problems by designing, building and testing things. An engineer is a person who uses math and science to create new things, solve problems or make things better. A structure is the result of building or constructing something by arranging materials or parts. In engineering, structures are specially designed to be safe and durable. How a structure or building is designed can impact how sturdy and safe it is.
