construction

design, construction, and supervision of civil and hydro engineering works

From a CV:
:1978 to 1980 : Roads Section
Worked for 2,5 years in the Roads Section on a number of roads and stormwater projects. This included responsibility for the planning , design , construction and supervision of the work.

From an engineering journal blurb:
Typically using a case-study approach, Civil Engineering Practice places key emphasis on the presentation of techniques being applied successfully in the analysis, justification, design, construction, operation and maintenance of civil engineering works.

"Construction" is much more idiomatic in this context than "execution".

Studies cover: (a) Structural and Civil Design – with lectures on aspects of modern design and construction practice in low rise buildings, roads, bridges and tall buildings (including limit states concepts, prestressed concrete, wind models and analysis of tall structures, dynamics, creep and shrinkage in concrete structures etc.); and major design projects in civil engineering which involve multidisciplinary design criteria requiring in-depth knowledge and participation by individuals within project groups; and (b) Hydro Engineering – elementary models of load demand; elements of hydro schemes; cost structure of hydro schemes; dam types and method of design; economics of river diversion; spillways; modern tunnelling methods; and underground openings.
