What inspired you to become a structural engineer? People? Structures?
I have always been more into the practicality of physics and maths rather than the theoretical side. I was good at physics and maths at school but I did not want to study pure physics or maths. I have never been interested in money and the stock market, so economics or accountancy would not be my choice either. Structural engineering sounded just right!
I did not know any structural engineers before I started studying, so it was a bit of a shot in the dark.
How long have you been a structural engineer?
I completed my Master’s degree in structural engineering in Poland, in 2012. A year later, I started working as a structural engineer in the UK.
您职业生涯中最大的成就是什么？
The greatest achievement of my career is becoming a Chartered Member of IStructE. I have learned a lot over the last year when I was preparing for the Professional Review interview and Chartered Membership exam. It made me look into elements of structural engineering that were beyond my daily work experience, but essential to make me feel that I am a structural engineer.
您将如何定义结构工程？
简而言之，结构工程师是一个确保结构坚固而坚固的人。如果要建造建筑物，则结构工程师定义了基础，柱/墙壁布局和尺寸的类型和大小，试图实现建筑师建议的结构形状。
结构不仅需要很好，而且功能齐全，这主要是建筑师的努力工作，而且还必须安全并站起来多年，这就是结构工程为党带来的。
Who should become a structural engineer?
Structural engineering brings many opportunities. If you are creative, sensible, with a practical sense, you could be a structural designer and cooperate with architects creating structures.
If you are more like a manager type of person you could work in delivering projects, looking after designers, finances, procurement of work. And if you prefer site-based work, and you are good at problem-solving and quick at decision making, you could be overseeing site works.
您如何与机构互动？
我参加活动，讲座和课程。大多数人真的很有价值。我喜欢使用制造手册来设计结构，以欧洲码头，技术指导说明和基本知识序列。我还重视D. Brohn博士的效果课程，了解结构行为，设计和分析。
