Read the following passage carefully and create following elements of scientific research method. 1. research topic 2. background of the study (half page or less; one or two paragraphs) 3. Problem statement (1 paragraph of 2 to 5 lines) 4. research objectives (only two) 5. rescarch questions (only two) 6 significance (1 paragraph) 7. limitations of the study (1, 2 or 3 lines) 8. Definitions of terms (1 or two lines, if necessary to be defined) Civil engineering is much more than erecting skyscrapers or bridges. Civil engineers are trained in the interactions among structures, the earth, and water, with applications ranging from highways to dams and water reservoirs, Deeply involved with specifying appropriate construction materials, many civil engineers and others are also employed by the manufacturers of those materials. Since constructing a large building or public-works project can involve elaborate planning, civil engineers can be outstanding project managers. They sometimes oversee thousands of workers and develop advanced computerization and planning policies. Most significantly, many civil engineers are involved with preserving, protecting, or restoring the environment. Most water treatment and water purification projects are designed and constructed by civil engineers (in these two areas, many of them are known as environmental engineers). A growing number of civil engineers are involved in billion-dollar projects to clean up toxic industrial or municipal wastes at abandoned dump sites. Civil engineers engage in such diverse projects as preserving wetlands or beaches, maintaining national forest parks, and restoring the land around mines, oil wells, or factories.
