The Performance of Walls Built of Wirecut Bricks Built With and Without Perforations

As is customary at the first Ordinary Meeting of the New Year, the meeting of the Institution at 6 o’clock on Thursday 14 January, 1971 will take the form of an open discussion. This year’s theme is a subject of considerable topical interest. All members are invited to bring to the meeting colleagues from the contracting industry from whom contributions to the discussion will be most welcome.

The conditions for the 13th Biennial Competition for the Drury Medal, founded by the late Mr. F. E. Drury (Past President) are now available.

Such groups will be under the direction of a Convener, appointed by the Council, who will be personally responsible for organising the work of his Group, contacting correspondents, producing and exchanging draft documents, etc. The general procedure for the working of a Study Group is set out on this page. Some simple rules are clearly necessary but it is the hope of the Council that the strength of a Study Group will lie in its informality, and in the opportunity it provides for members in all parts of the world to exchange ideas and experience.
