The Structural Engineer, Volume 8, Issue 9, 1930
The subject set for the Brenforce Travelling Scholarship this year was the preparation of a scheme for a museum in reinforced concrete in a public park as a Valhalla for statutary monuments to public men.
MANY buildings are not correctly braced, with the result that forces produced in the structure reach the foundations after some parts have been overstressed. W. Smith
SIR,-I am sure most members of the Institution will be pleased to have read in the Press that the Building Act Committee of the L.C.C. are recommending the permissible height of London buildings to be raised from 8O ft to 100 ft. Since this follows closely upon persistent agitation by the Institution of Structural Engineers, I feel that our Institution may take a little credit for this step forward.
