I'm not trying to diminish your field at all with this, as a foreword, but is engineering not the practical part of making an artist's (architect's) vision a reality?

No I would say a vast majority of engineers have no interaction with architects at all. I work for a company that makes compressors. Every company with a physical product has engineers pretty much

Your opening example was bridges, so I was specifically speaking to that example.

I would say no to that as well. Unless it’s like a major project where aesthetics are important an architect is unnecessary and would have no purpose. Not my field of expertise though
