As part of our governance process, nominations open from the 11 March for numerous vacancies across our Board, Council and Regional Groups.

These positions are a great opportunity to get involved in the future direction of the Institution, to build your network and to inspire the future generation of structural engineers.

The roles and their remit also align with our President Tanya de Hoog’s campaign “Engineering with purpose: aligning our values for global impact” and its Calls to Action, especially the action: “I commit to actively sharing my knowledge and collaborating with others to accelerate technical expertise within our wider engineering community in 2024.”

We’ll be emailing our voting members soon with details about how they can stand for election. Here’s an overview:
 

  • Vice-president (Trustee) vacancy: Eligible voting members of the Institution are invited to stand for election for Vice-President of India, Middle East and Africa (IMEA) global Regional Group.
  • Members of the Trustee Board x 2: Voting members are also invited to stand for election for our Trustee Board where we have two vacancies.
  • Ordinary Member of Council x 3: Voting members can stand for election for Ordinary Member of Council, where we have three vacancies.
  • Regional Group Nominations: As we move forward with the changes to the UK and Ireland Regional Group structure, there are vacancies across all eight of our UK and Ireland Regional Groups – Nominations for these positions will open on 20 May 2024.

Using high performance concrete for the strengthening and upgrading of buildings

Repairing, restoring, and upgrading concrete structures has become ever more important as the world, construction sector and concrete industry face the challenge of reducing their carbon footprints. The reuse of buildings and structures is being encouraged to reduce waste, as well as the ‘embodied’ carbon. However, many older buildings and structures do not comply with current Standards or require additional load capacity. To keep them in use and extend their life, some form of strengthening is usually required.
