    1 2 3 Our goal in this lecture will be to show how the definition and ideas of structural art began and to do that we need to turn our attention to Great Britain and the first civil engineers that developed following the industrial revolution. So we look at a series of structures starting at the onset of the industrial revolution. And we also continue defining structural art through comparative critical analysis which makes a comparison based on the 3 perspectives of structural art: scientific, social, and symbolic. 4 SLIDE 2 Image: Public Domain CIA World Facebook (https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Uk-map.png) To begin we have to look at the beginning of the fundamental changes that happened as a result of the industrial revolution. I’m not going to go deep into the Industrial Revolution, but there were two major changes that led to the emergence of this new art form of the engineer. One is the change of building material. For example, they were building with wood and stone, and then following the Industrial Revolution, constructions are made with iron. There is also a change of power source from animal and human power to steam power. These two fundamental changes enabled the materials iron, steel and concrete, etc. to come about. Our lecture today is going to focus on engineering in Great Britain. Today’s lecture focuses on designers of Great Britain [Indicate Scotland, England, and Wales on map] Industrial revolution began in Great Britain in late 18th century on basis of two fundamental changes in engineering: 1 – change of building material from wood and stone to industrial iron This was THE material of the industrial revolution 5 2 – steam power (instead of human or animal power) – made iron possible (but we don’t focus on this point in this class) What also happened was that this new material was so much stronger that it needed less and less material.

This year the figure has been brought O down to 416, which is 7.8% of the national total of 5,290. While we work to decrease the overall numbers we do, unfortunately, have to add individual sites each year and recognise the challenge posed by a number of long-standing cases. We look to identify opportunities to focus resources on these tough cases. This year we have grant-aided some £1.5m of conservation repairs, Management Agreements and capacity building, covering a wide range of sites.

  • Scheduling Satellite-Based SAR Acquisition for Sequential Assimilation of Water Level Observations Into Flood Modelling
    School of Mathematical and Physical Sciences Department of Mathematics and Statistics Preprint MPS-2013-01 9 January 2013 Scheduling satellite-based SAR acquisition for sequential assimilation of water level observations into flood modelling by Javier Garcia-Pintado, Jeff C. Neal, David C. Mason, Sarah L. Dance and Paul D. Bates Scheduling satellite-based SAR acquisition for sequential assimilation of water level observations into flood modelling Javier Garc´ıa-Pintadoa,b,∗, Jeff C. Nealc, David C. Masona,b, Sarah L. Dancea,b, Paul D. Batesc aSchool of Mathematical and Physical Sciences, University of Reading, UK bNational Centre for Earth Observation, University of Reading, Reading, UK cSchool of Geographical Sciences, University of Bristol, Bristol, UK Abstract Satellite-based Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) has proved useful for obtaining information on flood extent, which, when intersected with a Digital Elevation Model (DEM) of the floodplain, provides water level observations that can be assimilated into a hydrodynamic model to decrease forecast uncertainty. With an increasing number of operational satellites with SAR capability, in- formation on the relationship between satellite first visit and revisit time and forecast performance is required to optimise the operational scheduling of satellite imagery. By using an Ensemble Transform Kalman Filter (ETKF) and a synthetic analysis with the 2D hydrodynamic model LISFLOOD-FP based on a real flooding case affecting an urban area (summer 2007, Tewkesbury, Southwest UK), we evaluate the sensitivity of the forecast performance to visit parameters. We emulate a generic hydrologic-hydrodynamic modelling cascade by imposing a bias and spatiotem- poral correlations to the inflow error ensemble into the hydrodynamic domain.

  • William Hazledine, Shropshire Ironmaster and Millwright
    WILLIAM HAZLEDINE, SHROPSHIRE IRONMASTER AND MILLWRIGHT: A RECONSTRUCTION OF HIS LIFE, AND HIS CONTRIBUTION TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF ENGINEERING, 1780 - 1840 by ANDREW PATTISON A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of MASTER OF PHILOSOPHY Ironbridge Institute Institute of Archaeology and Antiquity, College of Arts and Law, University of Birmingham October 2011 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties. The intellectual property rights of the author or third parties in respect of this work are as defined by The Copyright Designs and Patents Act 1988 or as modified by any successor legislation.

Further distribution or reproduction in any format is prohibited without the permission of the copyright holder. ABSTRACT The name of William Hazledine (1763 – 1840) is almost unknown, even to industrial historians. This is surprising, since he provided the ironwork for five world ‘firsts’, and he was described at the time of his death as ‘the first [foremost] practical man in Europe’. The five structures are Ditherington Flax Mill, Shrewsbury (the first iron- framed building in the world), Pontcysyllte Aqueduct (still one of the longest and highest in Britain), lock gates on the Caledonian Canal, a new genre of cast-iron arch bridges, and Menai Suspension Bridge. This thesis aims to rediscover Hazledine’s life and work, and place it in the context of social and industrial history. It particularly concentrates on the development of cast iron technology in Shropshire, which has been less studied than the work of earlier ironmasters, such as the Darbys and John Wilkinson.

  • Telford's Mythe Bridge at Bushley
    The Bridge. Until the 19th century access from Bushley and it's environs to Tewkesbury, the other side of the River Severn, was only available via two ancient ferry crossings at Upper and Lower Lode. One took travellers to Forthampton Court and the other to Pull Court in Bushley and then onwards to T H E M Y T H E B R I D G E. Ledbury. The nearest bridge over the Severn was at Upton, which was the lowest point of the river that it was bridged at that time. But as advances in bridge design, and the increasing use of cast iron, Thomas Telford’s iron masterpiece over the River Severn were making larger spans more feasible a bridge crossing at Tewkesbury was considered to be viable and the idea was reviewed in 1816 and 1818. John Rennie, from London, was the first in Bushley. engineer to investigate a possible site for a new bridge and he selected a location halfway between the two ferry crossings to be connected to Tewkesbury via a causeway across the Ham. In 1823 the ‘Tewkesbury Severn Bridge and Turnpikes Trust' was set up by Act of Parliament and For the construction of the bridge local supporters raised £18,600, the two Tewkesbury MPs contributing £1,000 each. General Dowdeswell of Pull Court, who originally objected the project as he did not want his constituents in Tewkesbury (when he was MP) being able to access his home and bother him, sold his ferry crossing at Upper Lode for £1,650, contributing £500.
