App Description

Klaus Lange: Dictionary of Projects Abroad, German-English/English-German, edition 2010
Contracting, Planning, Design and Execution

With approx. 76,000 terms German-English and more than 84,000 terms English-German, the Dictionary of Projects Abroad is among the most extensive reference works for the areas of structural engineering, construction and construction law.
This dictionary is an extensive and practical travel companion for the successful handling of construction projects abroad and indispensable for anyone who communicates and negotiates in foreign construction, with foreign-speaking construction companies, builders or professional engineers in English.

In addition to the main vocabulary of construction and plant engineering, there are expressions from many specialized foreign construction areas, which in many cases saves the user the trouble of searching in several specialty dictionaries.
The work is completed with an extensive list of abbreviations in English and a section on “numbers in English”.
A special feature is the accommodation of expressions for the following contractual conditions:
International FIDIC contractual conditions, Honorarordnung für Architekten und Ingenieure (German fee ordinance for architects and engineers) (HOAI)
