Russian term or phrase: конструирование зданий и сооружений
Добрый день еще раз,

Я перевожу приложение к диплому, выданного одним украинским университетом
(факультет архитектуры). В списке предметов присутствует "конструирование зданий и сооружений". Как лучше перевести этот термин на амер. англ.?

Мой вариант: Architectural Modeling of Buildings and Other Structures.
Это при том условии, что имеется в виду именно моделирование...
(см. "конструирование" в след. статье: https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/Проектирование)

Желательно услышать мнение специалистов по архитектуре.

Заранее спасибо,
Игорь.

disagree  The Misha: This is a nonsensical phrase. You don't design construction. You design things, such as building. Also, the use of -ing here, in the last word, is screamingly nonnative.
