“Engineering is not a science, science

studies particular events to find general laws.

Engineering design makes use of these laws to

solve particular problems. In this it is more

closely related to art or craft; as in art its

problems are underdefined, there are many

solutions, good, bad and indifferent. The art

is, by synthesis of ends and means, to arrive

at a good solution. This is a creative

activity involving imagination,

intuition and deliberate choice.”Ove Arup
