Hi
To best answer your question, there are two things to consider. Purely from academic strength - US and UK are good for the program that you are looking for, as most universities in both these countries have strong research in structural engineering and given your percentage, you can make it to good ones.
But, the Civil as a sector is presently down in these countries, which means either your stay back or chances for relevant experience can be quite limited and competitive. From a long term perspective both these countries are best to study as you can use the skills in growing markets such as UAE, where the construction sector is seeing increased activity.
Apart from the above two, you can also look at Universities in Western Australia specifically such as Curtin, University of Western Australia. This part of Australia, presently offers the maximum opportunities in your field.
Alternatively, if it is important for you to gain relevant employment in the short term, then it might be worth looking at studying in the UAE as well. For example, Heriot Watt University in Dubai offers - MSc in Civil and Construction Management with modules in Structures as well - this might be worth exploring.
Hope this helps. If you find the answer useful, please rate it by giving a thumbs up or choosing it as the best answer.
