The Structural Engineer, Volume 66, Issue 23, 1988
Like the vast majority of fellow engineers, I am proud to be a part of the civil/structural engineering profession of the 20th century. Our joint contribution to the development, maintenance and progress of our nation is a very significant one. Few would dispute that. S.G. Gilbert
George had noticed, over the last 5 to 10 years, an increasing tendency for his clients, and architects and quantity surveyors, to ask him to arrange various contracts on their behalf. Some of the contracts were quite small, e.g. a few trial holes for a new house or an extension to a house. Others, however, were sizeable - full-scale site investigations, laboratory tests on samples of materials, the making of expensive models, and even commissioning market research for a feasibility report he was preparing.

In 1979 I was approached by a group sponsored through a MSC project, under what was then the Youth Opportunities Programme, to advise on the design of a timber barn. D.M. Brohn
