- Abstract
After a brief review of the background to the development of the engineering heritage in Australia, its three elements are identified as - personalities, documentation and artefacts. The degrees and types of protection required by, and afforded to, each element are examined, and the major hazards which they face are discussed. Measures which are urgently required to place the engineering heritage on a sound basis are indicated.
