architectural Explanation: The text appears to differentiate between elements relating to marine architecture (ship structures) and mechanical elements. "Marine architecture" gets a fair number of G-hits. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 day23 hrs (2007-12-30 19:15:04 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- "Mechanical engineering" sounds like translatorese, as it's a process, whereas your text suggests that the term refers to physical elements. "Mechanical equipment" (or elements) or, as you indicate in the note, "machinery" should do the trick. "Architectural structures and mechanical equipment" would be the difference I suggest. |
