USDA ARS Hydrology and Remote Sensing Lab. 1. . . INTRODUCTION. Civil and environmental engineering includes the conception, analysis, design, construction, operation, and maintenance of a diversity of structures, facilities, and systems. All are built on, in, or with soil or rock. The properties and behavior of these materials have major influences on the success, economy, and safety of the work. Soil Composition. Soils are made of four main components:. mineral matter. (40 - 60 %). soil water. (20 - 50 %). soil air. . (0 - 40 %) The soil pore space is filled either by soil water or soil air. Figure 3-24.
