Spotlight on Structures (May 2016)

This month we bring you another question from the Institution's Structural Behaviour Course. The topic is bending moment diagrams. Answers will be published in the June issue.

A round-up of events at Institution HQ and around the regional groups.

This month's letters discuss media coverage of structural engineering, the thorny issue of 'reasonably practicable', the role of the principal designer, the need for greater recognition of temporary works, and the Party Wall etc. Act 1996.
