IN MEMORIAM HEINZ ISLER

摘要

The passing of Heinz Isler on 20 June 2009, just before his 83rd birthday, following a stroke earlier in the year, has taken from us the last of the great reinforced concrete shell builders of the 20th century and one of IASS's best known, respected and long-serving members. Present at the first IASS Congress, in Madrid, in September 1959, sadly he was not to see the 50th anniversary. At the time of his decease he was an Honorary Member, receiving this honour in 1994, and a member of the Advisory Board.
