JOB DESCRIPTION

Structural engineers design structures to withstand stresses and pressures imposed through environmental conditions and human use. Structural engineers help to design most structures, including houses, hospitals, office blocks, bridges, oil rigs, ships and aircraft and are responsible for choosing the appropriate materials. They ensure buildings and other structures do not deflect, rotate, vibrate excessively or collapse and that they remain stable and secure throughout their use; they examine existing buildings and structures to test if they are structurally sound and still fit for purpose.

The status of ‘incorporated engineer’ is obtained upon the completion of further training at work and associate membership of a chartered engineering institution. The status of ‘chartered engineer’ is achieved through the completion of postgraduate training and full membership of a chartered engineering institution.
