The project scope as currently written talks about topics but not buildings or structures. This is a tough constraint to put on Civil Engineers. In fact, the current categorization has a number of categories that structures. The Electrical engineering project has a good scope statement:

An arch-gravity dam or arched dam is a dam with the characteristics of both an arch dam and a gravity dam. It is a dam that curves upstream in a narrowing curve that directs most of the water pressure against the canyon rock walls, providing the force to compress the dam. It combines the strengths of

The design of an arch-gravity dam is an amalgam of the arch dam and gravity dam designs. It is a dam that curves upstream in a narrowing curve that directs most of the water pressure against the canyon rock walls, providing the force to compress the dam. This maximizes the strength of the dam while

I think this particular route may count as a pass, as from either side it is the uppermost section of a long ascent to a high mountain crossing (it would be different if it was a lower-level tunnel under a mountain range). Tunnelled or partially covered sections are common on high mountain routes,

I am new to the CE project although I have been writing on

I don't know the reference, but the horizontal curved slice really does translate the compression-force of the water along the shape of the curve, which would buckle any other shape.
