English term

civil construction buildings

English to German Tech/Engineering Construction / Civil Engineering
"Civil construction buildings relevant to production and auxiliary plants areas will be cast in-situ RC framed design with masonry filling and/or bricks or precast walls."

From a (pretty amateurish) tender. I know "civil engineering", but I don't know what "civil construction buildings" are. Can anyone help?

Thanks!

Hewhotranslates (asker) Dec 28, 2016:
In their pretranslations they use "Bauarbeiten" for "civil work". Pretty confusing. Also, "civil engineering" has a multitude of different translations, such as "Hoch-/Tiefbau", "Bauwesen", "Bautechnik", or just "Tiefbau". Bit of a wishy-washy term, it seems. I guess I'll need to ask my client.

Hoch- und Tiefbauten

Abgesehen von der wörtlichen Übersetzung als "zivile Bautechnik" ist "civil construction" dasselbe wie "civil engineering".

Die Übersetzung des ganzen Ausdrucks führt damit zu "Hoch- und Tiefbaugebäude", was einerseits ziemlich redundant ist, weil die meisten Gebäude ein Fundament haben, das zur Abteilung "Tiefbau" gehört und andererseits niemand von Hochbaugebäuden oder Tiefbaugebäuden spricht. Gesprochen wird nur von Hochbauten und Tiefbauten.
