Description

The 6th Australian engineering heritage conference was held in Hobart, Tasmania, 5-7 Oct 1992.

Abstract

The theme for conference, 'Conserving and Recording Engineering Heritage', highlights the need to both conserve items of engineering significance and to adequately record details of items past and present which have or will be lost. Similarly the biographies of engineers and technologists who have contributed to the advancement of knowledge and techniques in the science are important to document fully. These papers cover many aspects of this theme and describe a range of experiences, ideas and possibilities for further consideration in the application of engineering skills and research capabilities.
