Spotlight on Structures (September 2016)

This month we bring you another question from the Institution's Structural Behaviour Course. The topic is bending moment diagrams for portal frames.

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

This month's letters respond to the Profile of Chris Wise published in the August issue; consider the impact of Brexit on the UK's continued use of the Eurocodes; ask for help from Caribbean members in identifying an early 20th century bridge; and clarify some of the points raised in August's health-and-safety note about glass.
