The Structural Engineer, Volume 73, Issue 20, 1995
I am not the first President (nor, I suspect, will I be the last) who, when selecting a title for his Address, consults dictionaries and reference books to see whether he understands the meaning of his title.

The author has spent much of his professional life assessing the condition of existing buildings for maintenance, repair; refurbishment, extension and change of use. He had a feature article published in The Structural Engineer (1 November 1994 ); it set out some of the skills which he considered were required by structural engineers taking on building appraisal and refurbishment projects. This paper examines the whole subject of building refurbishment in some greater detail. B.P. Clancy
