Unreferenced date December 2009 Orphan date November 2006 In systems engineering , Specialty Engineering includes the engineering domains that are not typical of the main engineering effort. Hardware engineering, software engineering , and human factors human factors engineering may be used as major elements in a majority of systems engineering efforts and therefore are not viewed as special . Engineering domains such as electromagnetic interference , electrical grounding , safety, security, electrical power filtering Uninterruptible power supply uninterruptible supply , and environmental engineering may be included in systems engineering efforts where they have been identified to address special system implementations. They are then viewed as specialty engineering . However, if the specific system has a standard implementation of environmental or security for example, the table may be turned and the human factors engineering or hardware software engineering may be the specialty engineering domain. The context of the system and unique needs of the project are fundamental when thinking of what is specialty engineering. A benefit of citing specialty engineering in planning is the notice to all team levels that special management and science factors may need to be accounted for and may influence the project. Specialty engineering may be cited by commercial entities and others to specify their unique abilities. DEFAULTSORT Specialty Engineering Category Engineering disciplines ... more details

Unreferenced date July 2008 Pavement engineering is a branch of civil engineering that uses engineering techniques to design and maintain flexible asphalt and rigid concrete pavements. This includes streets and highways and involves knowledge of soil s, hydraulics , and material properties. Pavement engineering involves new construction as well as rehabilitation and maintenance of existing pavements. Maintenance often involves using engineering judgment to make maintenance repairs with the highest long term benefit and lowest cost. The Pavement Condition Index PCI is an example of an engineering approach applied to existing pavements. Another example is the use of a falling weight deflectometer FWD to non destructively test existing pavements. Calculation of pavement layer strengths can be performed from the resulting deflection data.
