Hi, civil engineer* here. Nah, fam: a lot of the time we don't even use formulas; we just look shit up in tables or interpolate on a graph!

(* To be fair, (a) I specialized in traffic, and (b) I didn't do all that much professional work as a civil engineer before switching to software "engineering" instead. That's even less mathematically rigorous most of the time, LOL.)
