In the American system they are called civil engineers.

civil engineering is roads, sewers, water ... public infrastructure...
it only sees a building in the drainage, soil conditions studies
necessary for structural engineers to design the foundations etc and
preclude such things as landslides.

civil engineering does not get into building structures or its
plumbing/ electrical or hvac at all




Having said that ive seen ads such as :

Need enginner to design electronics controls systems for large
buildings... degree in civil, mechanical, or structural engineering
required.


those sorts or ads are placed by idiots.

That's how the selection criteria are formed in our lab sometimes. It
is like: "The applicant will have a PhD in Electrical Engineering, and
all of his experience should be in Mechanical Engineering". I believe
this is done to cull down on the number of applicants. And then the
local guy from the next room is hired into the position who had no
stinkin' PhD. That's what happened in our lab recently.

Sounds like the last couple of Dilberts. Yesterday Catbert
wrote job requirements of an I.Q. of 300, two centuries of
UNIX experience, and a track record of winning Nobel Prizes.
Today he got such a candidate (thanks to the time machine
and immortality drug the candidate invented) and Catbert
called him "too old".

Cheers,
Russell
