The paper describes typical structural problems associated with work to party walls in the City of London. It is divided into two parts. The first covers general aspects of stability, lateral restraint, flues, fire escapes and foundations in relation to party
walls; the second part gives n case history of the works to the boundaries and party walls in connection with the redevelopment of 55 Gracechurch Street during 1990-1992. The paper demonstrates the importance of carrying out a comprehensive programme of survey and exploratory works in advance in order to minimise problems during construction.

<h4>The Role of Incorporated Engineers</h4>

The Role of Incorporated Engineers

The role of Incorporated Engineers within our Institution appears, on the face, to be quite varied. The job status of an Incorporated Engineer varies tremendously, from draughtsman to company director: consequently, the scope of progression and expertise is completely down to the individual. The Institution’s own definition of the key roles of an Incorporated Engineer reads as follows: Project brief. The general philosophy of the brief; the assembly of relevant information, conditions and technical literature. D.M. Goodey

<h4>The Engineer as Expert Witness</h4>

The Engineer as Expert Witness

From time to time, engineers are called on to give expert evidence in court or at arbitrations. This may be as a witness to fact or as an expert witness, and it is important for the client to know at an early stage in which category the engineer will be required to appear. R.G. Grahame
