The paper centres around the experiences of Peter Terrell and Geoffrey Rooke since they started up in practice together in Paris in 1982, a time of general slump and despondency compared with the current dynamism in the approach to 1993.

<h4>The Position of the Structural Engineer in Society</h4>

The Position of the Structural Engineer in Society

Over the last 2 years, I have read with interest several ‘viewpoint’ articles on this subject from respected engineers. I want to generally recap on what was said, basically agree with it, and thereafter suggest some rather radical ideas on how we, as an Institution, should proceed. P.L. Ross

<h4>Presidential Address. An Elegant Profession</h4>

Presidential Address. An Elegant Profession

This President was torn between giving a ‘state of the art’ report on the health and development of the profession and of the Institution-our successes and our failures-or a statement on the ‘art we profess’. On the one hand, there is the danger of merely repeating, with some updating, the excellent reports that have been given by Past Presidents, and on the other there is the possible danger of indulging oneself, of ‘fiddling while Rome burns’. Experience would suggest that the art of pursuing one’s own policies while appearing to compromise is essential to the survival of any President. This I hope to achieve. J.H. Armstrong

<h4>On the Use and Calibration of Designg Standards for SHS Joints</h4>

On the Use and Calibration of Designg Standards for SHS Joints

The present state of specifications or recommendations governing the static design of welded structural hollow section (SHS) trusses and joints in various countries is reviewed, along with the calibration or adjustments made to suit particular Code formats. Recent international trends in the properties of manufactured tubes are described, and the impact these have on joint design is discussed. It is shown that recalibration of Eurocode 3 Appendix 6B proposals is warranted, prior to their adoption in the UK and elsewhere, and microcomputer-based design aids need to be subsequently produced for effective implementation.
