sketch it up 

Sketch It Up in civil engineering refers to the process of creating conceptual or detailed drawings to visualize design ideas, construction plans, or structural concepts. Engineers use sketches to communicate ideas quickly, solve design challenges, and present project concepts to clients, architects, or construction teams. These drawings can range from rough hand sketches during brainstorming sessions to detailed computer-aided designs (CAD). Sketching helps in visualizing dimensions, spatial relationships, and material placements. It also facilitates collaboration and effective problem-solving by allowing adjustments before formal drafting. In civil engineering, clear sketches are essential for accurate planning, design validation, and efficient project execution.
