Although I have spenthe greater part of my career as a mechanical engineer in the process industry, and the manufacturing of equipment for the same industry, I have always had the greatest respect for structural engineers, ever since I struggled as an undergraduate to grasp the concepts of moment distribution and plastic theory in the bending of beams. So it gives me great pleasure to address you, the structural engineers, through this special issue of your journal.

The Work of the Standing Committee on Structural Safety

Origins In the earlier days of civilisation, the safety of a structure depended entirely on the designer’s and builder’s intuition and experience. Many fine structures were built, some of which stand today; but there were many failures and these served to develop the designer’s understanding of structural behaviour. The Rt. Hon. the Lord Penney

The Structural Engineer in the Service of Society

One of the primary reasons for the existence of our Institution is to serve the structural engineering interests of our society in the best possible way. We certainly have other objectives, and I know that these objectives have been expressed on a number of occasions and in a number of different ways. I think that they are best embodied in our definition of structural engineering, as ‘the science and art of designing and making, with economy and elegance, buildings, bridges, frameworks, and other similar structures so that they can safely resist the forces to which they may be subjected’.
