peer agreement (net): +4| industrialisation of civil buildings public buildings Explanation: I agree with you and would go with "public buildings," Laura. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 16 mins (2012-08-23 17:52:03 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- However, the problem might lie as much with "buildings" as with "civil" --i.e., is the course confined to actually "buildings," or does it deal with all sorts of "civil engineering" and the design of all sorts of "civil" structures? For instance, I wouldn't call a bridge, a dam or a radio tower a "building," though the design of all those would fall under the aegis of "civil engineering." I would understand "civil" to refer (in USspeak) to non-domestic (i.e., private) buildings --so private houses, and even commercial buildings might not be included. But, I don't really know what sort of stuff is taught in "civil engineering" courses. |
