Hi! I'm looking to buy the new 14” MacBook. As a civil structural engineer, what the best choice could be to run AutoCAD, STAAD, Revit, SketchUp (together)? An 8-core CPU with 1TB SSD storage OR a 10-core CPU with 512GB SSD storage?

The one option you present is core count CPU vs Storage—that is hardly the same same comparison.
You might want to also consider GPU cores... and RAM...as deciding factors.
You have research to do, and I would start in house at your employment or University.
Since the new 14" is not in everybody's hands as of yet you are not going to get specifics here.
On line search of Geekbench may have some real life comparisons.
It might be better to ask other similar professionals what works best for them.
Core-8 or Core-10 for a Civil Structural Engineer?
