ENGINEERING SOUTH AUSTRALIA
PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE This is my final newsletter as your President and I must start by acknowledging what a privilege it has been. I have thoroughly enjoyed meeting with many of you over the course of the year and getting involved in activities that are outside of my normal day to day life. My sincere thanks to the support of the Division Staff and this year’s Division Committee; you have made the role thoroughly enjoyable. I would also like to wish John Olson RFD FIEAust CPEng EngExec FAICD and the Division Committee well for 2013. I am sure that John will represent the South Australia Division well. It has been a very interesting year, with many changes occurring within Engineers Australia, within the economy and within the broader Australian context. I am only going to focus on a few things in this wrap up of the year. At the start of the year I set 3 broad goals for what I would like to influence over the course of the year. I wanted to re-engage regional members of Engineers Australia, connect better with the public and politicians as influencers to highlight the role engineers can play in society and to ensure that we are providing a relevant CPD program for engineers in SA. Over the course of the year I think we have made terrific progress towards these goals and I hope it has helped to increase the relevance of Engineers Australia for you, our members. I firmly believe that as engineers we have a lot to contribute to public debate and we need to be getting our voice heard. We need to continue to stay up to date, working at the highest level of technical excellence and we need to engage with each other to test and refine our thinking. I have thoroughly enjoyed my time as an office bearer for Engineers Australia and have found that it is a great way to keep up with current issues and challenge my own thinking; I have been delighted to see some familiar faces nominating for the 2013 Division Committee and also glad to welcome some new faces. South Australia will continue to change and as engineers we can provide solutions to the problems that come along. The biggest concern I have at present is that there does not appear to be a vision for where we are going as a State. I have had the feeling that a lot of eggs were placed in the basket of Olympic Dam and now that it doesn’t exist anymore (at least economically) our community seems to be lost as to what comes next. I am not going to say I have the answer, because I don’t, but this is a major issue facing our state and there are many options that exist. We need to unite around a direction and work towards achieving the future we want to have. I encourage you all to get involved in this debate, be loud and proud to be an engineer and make something happen. The final thing I would like to contribute as South Australia Division President is a caution for the future. I have been delighted to see the passion and energy of those involved in Engineers Australia over the past 12 months. Engineers Australia is an organisation that can offer a lot but it needs to be clear on why it exists. We should not forget the past and the good things that our predecessors have accomplished and we cannot forsake the past whilst striving to achieve the future that we want to achieve. Engineers Australia is about you, the members, and providing a benefit for you. One area where we are trying to provide value is through the recognition of leadership experience and competence through Engineering Executive accreditation - EngExec. The EngExec postnominal recognises the achievements of members who satisfy relevant leadership and management competency standards. I encourage you register to attend the CELM EngExec outreach session being held on 12th February 2013 via http://tinyurl.com/pathway-engexec and discover your pathway to EngExec. Engineers Australia will also continue to run workshops for those looking at being recognised for technical competence through the CPEng process. The first workshop next year will be held on 5th February 2013, I encourage you to get involved and register via http://tinyurl.com/at5xndt. In parting I would again like to thank all of you for your support and encouragement over the past year. It has been a terrific experience as President of Engineers Australia SA Division and I encourage all of you to get behind the initiatives of John Olson RFD FIEAust CPEng EngExec FAICD in the coming year.

DESIGN ISSUES WITH THE 4000 CLASS EMUS
Simon Mitchell (DPTI) presenting ‘Design Issues with the 4000 Class EMUs’, Thursday 1st November 2012.
Simon Mitchell, project engineer on the Class 4000 Electric Multiple Units (EMUs) Rolling Stock team, gave a presentation on Thursday 1st November 2012 about some of the engineering challenges encountered during the design finalisation of the 4000 Class EMUs. Simon originally gave a presentation in August 2011 on the engineering innovation and improvements planned for the new 4000 Class EMUs. During this presentation Simon spoke of the use of new technologies that were being incorporated into the rolling stock. This month’s presentation focussed on the reality of implementing those technologies and also of changes to the original design brought from experience, such as having an upgraded HVAC system that can cope with the Adelaide weather. Another evolving design involved the driver’s desk. To develop the design, a full size mockup was created which had magnetic switches, indicators and gauges. This allows the drivers to arrange the cab desk layout to meet their needs. Simon also spoke of the pride that people involved with the project had. He said that he hoped all Adelaidians would share that sense of pride when they see the EMUs on the Seaford line. Russell Fuller Chair Railway Technical Society of Australasia - SA Chapter

CELEBRATING CHARTERED MEMBERS AT BCA ENGINEERS BCA Engineers are a South Australian owned engineering firm started in 2008 during the global financial crisis. Specialties include Building Services and Fire Safety Engineering across a diverse range of industry sectors. BCA Engineers see building services engineering as the science of developing infrastructure aimed at enhancing human comfort through controlling heat, light, and sound in the built environment.
Left to right: Peter Burrows MIEAust CPEng, Director of BCA Engineers Scott Gill GradIEAust and Dennis Julardzija MIEAust CPEng
Founding directors Patrick Campbell TMIEAust CEngT and Nathan Brown MIEAust CPEng saw an opportunity to create an engineering consultancy that values clients and their needs above restrictive operating systems and international influences. In four years the team has swelled to 24 employees, and addition of a third Director, Scott Gill GradIEAust. BCA engineers also have offices in Alice Springs and Darwin in Northern Territory.
BCA Engineers values the Chartered process provided by Engineers Australia highly and considers it a key component of employment. BCA Engineers recognise and congratulate Peter Burrows MIEAust CPEng, Senior Mechanical Engineer; and Dennis Julardzija MIEAust CPEng, Senior Fire Engineer, who were recently awarded with their Chartered Status certificates in an informal ceremony in the Adelaide Office. This results in almost 60% of engineers employed attaining chartered status, with remaining engineers well on their way to achieving chartered status. "I am a strong believer of the Chartered program which has provided opportunities to participate in significant projects in The Philippines and Mongolia" Peter said, while Dennis was quoted "I'm extremely proud of my chartered status that allows me to be recognised as a engineering professional across the country, and also the world". The term engineer is used as a generic description covering a large range of occupations however Chartered Engineer has a single definite meaning, which BCA Engineers are proud to be associated.

“The process has reminded me of the enjoyable projects and roles I have had over my 18 year career so far as an Engineer and particularly the satisfaction and pride I have of seeing a project progress from concept to design, through to construction and then ultimately into use by the community.”
“Chartered status has given me formal recognition of my competence as a Professional Engineer; and having recently gone through the process myself, I have been able to assist and encourage others with their CPEng applications.” Hamish Rhodes has 9 years experience as a mechanical engineer and 6 in consulting. “Going through the process of achieving Chartered Status was challenging, yet rewarding. It enabled me to target experiences to expand my knowledge, making me a more rounded Engineer.” “Chartered Status provides independent recognition of an Engineer's competency in their chosen discipline. It also makes an individual think very carefully about their professional actions, which makes for rigorous and ethical engineering outcomes for the users of the project we deliver.” Javier Garcia, has had more than 15 years of international experience in the field of Automotive Mechanical Engineering before migrating to Australia in 2005. “I am passionate about developing my professional skills. After becoming a member of Engineers Australia, achieving my Chartered Status became my next milestone in my Engineering journey. It was also a way to demonstrate my commitment to the profession.” ‘I found the process of attaining the Chartered Status at times challenging yet rewarding. The advice, encouragement and feedback from my colleagues proved invaluable when preparing my CERs and presentation for my interview. I look forward to furthering my development in the Mechanical Engineering field.’ More information on KBR’s graduate recruitment program can be found at www.kbrjobs.com KBR

MEMBER PROFILE In this edition of Engineering South Australia we will be providing profiles of two judges who were involved in assessing entries for the 2012 South Australian Engineering Excellence Awards, who we would like to acknowledge for their contribution.
Bronte Strout FIEAust CPEng
Why did you decide to become an engineer? From my early recollections of my life I always had an interest in what made things work and how they worked. My father was a carpenter by trade but went on to have a significant role in the Engineering and Water Supply Department (the predecessor to SA Water) where he was involved in the construction of major pipelines, reservoirs and the expansion of the sewerage network in South Australia. I think that this was a major influence in my career choice. I remember responding to a questionnaire when I started secondary school that my future career choices were to be an engineer, architect or draftsman. So my decision to become an engineer was made back then. What do you like the most about the engineering profession? The opportunities to apply my skills and knowledge to the benefit of the wider community and the advancement of the skills of younger engineers. If you could have worked on any engineering project, throughout history, what would you choose? The Snowy Mountains Engineering Scheme.
What is the greatest piece of technology released in the last decade? Hologram technology allowing a person to appear to be on a stage when they are thousands of kilometres away. Why are you an Engineers Australia member? I believe that all engineers should support their profession by being a member of the peak body that works to maintain the standards of the practitioners of this wonderful profession. If you could take a year off to study anything, what would it be? Principles of major project finance. What do you feel is the engineering profession’s strongest asset? The ability to harness a reasoning process to solve simple and complex problems and processes essential to advancement. What are your hobbies? Golf. What is your motto? The desire to go to work should be equal to the desire to stay at home with your family. Neither is a haven from the other. What would be your ideal working holiday? Helping disadvantaged people. Who would you most like to meet? William Wales
What do you see as one of the biggest issues facing the engineering profession? The diminishing ability of young engineers to communicate on a face to face basis because of the growing reliance on e-mail, which removes the essential personal relationships component required for good communication. The reliance on the computer is also removing the ability to be able to create well constructed written documents and formal letters.
WHY JOIN ENGINEERS AUSTRALIA? Do you have colleagues, friends or acquaintances who should be members of Engineers Australia? Or are you an engineer who is not a member of Engineers Australia?

MEMBER PROFILE Dr Don Sinnott FIEAust CPEng (Ret)
Why did you decide to become an engineer? Science and maths were the subjects that most interested me at school and, as a kid, and a big kid, a passion to tinker and make things led naturally to an engineering career. What do you like the most about the engineering profession? Ideas, principles and concepts are realised in projects, to which teams of people contribute in a cooperative and systematic way. If you could have worked on any engineering project, throughout history, what would you choose? The development of radar and other electronic defence systems in the UK under extreme pressures during World War II is an epic story of science, engineering and their application to continually moving client requirements. To be involved would have been mix of exhilaration and terror at the time, an incredible experience in retrospect. What do you see as one of the biggest issues facing the engineering profession? Engineering as a profession continues to expand into new fields – computer and bio engineering are examples of recent decades – yet has a traditional base in standards-aligned design. This base in accountability and ethics is a critical characteristic of engineering that must be preserved if the profession is to remain relevant and not simply be seen as an element of “science”.
What is the greatest piece of technology released in the last decade? The continuing evolution in computing and communications technology is truly astounding, made up of many elements of technological advance that, seen in isolation, are each “great pieces of technology”. Why are you an Engineers Australia member? I confess that I did not join Engineers Australia early in my career because other professional institutions met my needs as an electronics research engineer more closely at that time. I later saw that I owed the engineering profession at large my support and that, in particular, I could play a part in promoting the profile of IT and electronics within Engineers Australia. If you could take a year off to study anything, what would it be? I would love to have a second (or a number of) languages. An immersive language and culture experience would be great. What do you feel is the engineering profession’s strongest asset? Undoubtedly the commitment of its volunteer base. What are your hobbies? Semi-retired, I now find more time to read about and explore wider issues in engineering, science, history and theology. I enjoy being a communicator, speaking and writing on subjects that interest me. Who would you most like to meet? A day with Leonardo da Vinci would be mind-blowing (if we could share a common language).
