 Happy New Year!
This month's structural newsletter,
the first for this year, features an extensive list of educational
resources.
This newsletter is a monthly publication of the Structural Engineer
Website. Note that all visitors of the website may contribute material
for inclusion in our databases and promotion through our newsletter. If
you are aware of resources on the internet or you have developed
resources that you believe will be of interest to the members of
structural engineering community, please send them to us and we will add them
and acknowledge the contribution.
