architectural engineer
Explanation: Depending on the emphasis on the 'building' element, it could also be architectural engineer.
Some info from the engineering programme offered by the University of Texas at Austin:
Architectural Engineering
The curriculum in architectural engineering prepares a student for a career in one or more of the following areas: structural engineering, construction engineering and project management, environmental systems, and construction materials. The curriculum is heavily oriented toward buildings and all aspects of their safe and economical design and construction. Architectural engineering also provides the students with a basic appreciation for the interaction of engineering and architecture.

You may wish to have a look at the following website for an idea of courses taken by a burgerlijk ingenieur-architect
http://www.kuleuven.be/onderwijs/aanbod/opleidingen/N/SC_500...
and its prerequisite, namely kandidaat burgerlijk ingenieur architect
http://www.kuleuven.ac.be/onderwijs/aanbod2004/opleidingen/N...
and compare with the descriptions given for architectural and civil engineering at the second website I mentioned above (under academic programs).
To my mind, the courses required for burgerlijk ingenieur architect don't overlap sufficiently with the requirements for civil engineering (which seems more like burgerlijk bouwkundig ingenieur).
