Overview
ABSTRACT
In France, the civil engineering sector is a pillar of economic development and a key player in sustainable growth. This article explains how civil engineering projects are the result of advanced preparation and skillful implementation. Using such precise methods, work is carried out both accurately and within short time-scales, which in turn results in long lasting structures such as: long bridges, large tunnels, expansive airports, underground water structures and narrow roads. The organization of both small and large work sites have similarities. The article describes the common features in the organization of thousands of CEW sites pointing out that planning is of the utmost importance and should a site manager follow this advice risks will be cut and advantages increased. Finally it is to be noted that human resources also plays a key role.
Read this article from a comprehensive knowledge base, updated and supplemented with articles reviewed by scientific committees.

INTRODUCTION
This file is intended for all engineers involved in public works and, more specifically, for site managers.
The organization of public works sites involves preparing the site according to a specific plan, but also structuring and arranging the various parties involved in the project. Both aspects will be examined in this report, with the first aspect being looked at more specifically during the preparation phase and the second during the implementation phase.
