Welcome to the Open Source Resources Page for the Civil Engineering Interest Area

This section of the DTIC Web site is designed to provide information on one of the many communities of interest served by DTIC.

The Civil Engineering Interest Area covers all aspects of technology necessary for force deployment, protection, and sustainment, including logistics planning, amphibious assault and logistics- over-over-the-shore, base and in-theater infrastructure, and protective structures in the field and at installations and bases.

Civil Engineering Technology Areas:

  • Conventional Facilities
    Technologies that modernize and more efficiently operate DoD's aging infrastructure to effectively support Power Projection and enhanced quality of life.
  • Survivability & Protective Structures
    Force protection, from foxholes to fixed facilities, against weapon threats ranging from small arms to terrorist weapons through advanced conventional weapons with multispectral sensors.
  • Airfields & Pavements/
    Significantly enhanced capabilities to design, construct, and maintain reliable airfield pavements to support force projection for tactical and operational missions.
  • Sustainment Engineering
    Mission-critical engineering capabilities required to effectively shape the operational and tactical battlespace worldwide during DoD force projection from CONUS.
  • Firefighting
    Significantly enhanced capabilities to provide passive and active protection of critical weapons systems against peacetime, unpredicted contingency, and wartime fire potentials and threats.
  • Critical Airbase Facilities & Recovery
    Technologies for wartime contingencies and modernization of bare base infrastructure including airmobile shelters and utilities.
  • Waterfront Facilities/Operations
    Improved logistics for Naval & Marine Forces and use of affordable facilities infrastructure.

This section provides information about this topic based on questions and issues raised by DTIC customers, but it does not cover all of the information available in DTIC. To view all the information available through DTIC, you must first register.
