The Structural Engineer, Volume 66, Issue 11, 1988
The abilities of graduates, not merely in drawing skills, is open to constant review, but is perhaps in sharper focus at Part 3 time. The publication of the viewpoint was thus extremely well timed when the minds of many senior engineers were probably more open than usual to the performance of their graduates taking the exam. Many, no doubt, support and advise these graduates in their preparations and, like myself, cannot resist reading the paper afterwards and setting aside a little time to think through some solutions. David Wardle
Many firms are, or should be, looking at the question of whether or not they should carry on their practice through a partnership, or whether they should change to practising through a limited company. J.J. Ward
Mr B. P. Pritchard (W. S. Atkins & Partners): I wish to add my tribute to Mr Hayward and his partner for a very bracing little paper. I wish they had talked a little more about BS5400, but they certainly showed a few of the structures which have given them quite a name in the production of structural steel bridges, a material which had gone into some decline until they took a hand in the matter.
