The skills of the Assyrian “engineers” are attested in the fields of city planning, the construction of monumental buildings and bridges, hydraulic engineering, and transportation of heavy loads. In all major engineering projects, the Assyrian king appears in a key position as the principal client, financier, and manager. Hydraulic works are attested in the Near East in all historical periods and geographical regions. Among the most significant engineering projects were the Assyrian hydraulic installations created from the 13th century BCE onward in conjunction with the foundation of new royal residences or with the reshaping of existing cities. Timber was scarce in Assyria but was indispensable for the roofing of buildings and the construction of gates, and thus its acquisition and transport represented a particular concern. The water transport of timber is attested several times in the correspondence of Sargon II. Another method for transportation is shown on a wall relief from Sargon's palace in Dur-Šarrukin.
