The Structural Engineer, Volume 35, Issue 4, 1957
THE CHAIRMAN, opening the meeting, said the occasion was very exceptional for various reasons. In the first place, it was the first occasion on which there had been a joint meeting of the Institution of Structural Engineers and the British Constructional Steelwork Association, and he hoped very much that it would not be the last one. This co-operation was exemplified by the presence on the platform of Mr. Hipwell, the immediate Past President of the B.C.S.A., with whom he, the Chairman, was delighted to share the duties of the Chair.
In the Chair, Mr. Leslie Turner, B.Sc., M.I.C.E., M.I.Struct.E., President of the British Section of the Societe des Ingenieurs Civils de France.
