The field of construction engineering, one of the fast-developing spheres, is being constantly enriched with foreign words denoting advanced technologies. The purpose of this paper is to discover terminological units used in the Russian language to describe modern technologies in the sphere of construction engineering. This knowledge will help future specialists be competitive in the labour market. The sources of borrowing are discovered and described and the examples of lexical borrowing, lexical calques and partial-calques are given. The material for the analysis is the newest borrowings in the sphere of construction engineering appearing in the Russian language in the 21st century. The research is based on the analysis of terminological units found on the professional and informational web-sites for construction engineers.
