Architectural engineering is a professional engineering designation in the United States. The architectural engineer applies the knowledge and skills of broader engineering disciplines to the design, construction, operation, maintenance, and renovation of buildings and their component systems while paying careful attention to their effects on the surrounding environment.〔http://www.asce.org/architectural-engineering/architectural-engineering-institute/〕 With the establishment of a specific "Architectural Engineering" NCEES Professional Engineering registration examination in the 1990s, and first offering in April 2003,〔http://www.ncees.org〕 Architectural Engineering is now recognized as a distinct engineering discipline in the United States. Note that in the United States "architectural engineering technology" is different from architectural engineering;〔http://www.abet.org〕 in the United States architectural engineering technologists tend to be drafters or assistants for the design and construction process, while in Europe, Canada, South Africa and other countries Architectural Technologists have a role similar to Architects and Architectural Engineers. ==Areas of focus== * Architecture (if licensed as an Architect) * Structural engineering * Construction engineering * Construction management * Project management * Green building * Heating, ventilating, and air-conditioning (HVAC) * Plumbing and piping (hydronics) * Energy management * Fire protection engineering * Building power systems * Lighting * Building transportation systems * Acoustics, noise & vibration control A common combined specialization is ''Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing'', better known by its abbreviation MEP.〔http://www.courts.ca.gov/documents/3688.pdf〕 An MEP design engineer has experience in HVAC, lighting/electrical, and plumbing systems' analysis and design. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Architectural engineer (PE)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
