In the civil engineering construction industry, there are companies performing work on urban infrastructure (streets, highways and municipal systems) and large-scale civil engineering works (for example, electrical infrastructure, communications, non-road transportation and pipelines). Road construction sites are concentrated in cities, while large-scale construction sites and large-scale civil engineering works are concentrated in northern regions, such as James Bay and Nunavik. These industries are governed by numerous standards and regulations to ensure the safety of workers and users. Engineers in these sectors ensure the quality of work, select new materials and methods, conduct environment impact studies, inspect work sites and expedite work, all according to the regulations and requirements in effect. With the BNQ standards in the field of civil engineering and urban infrastructure, engineers are well-equipped to ensure the quality, reliability and safety of their work.
