−	Structural failure can be devastating. It is important therefore to select an individual or company that has a good track record and experience in structurally similar projects. Suitably qualified professionals will generally be Chartered or Incorporated Engineers who are members of the ~~[http://www.ice.org.uk/homepage/index.asp~~ Institution of Civil Engineers] and/or the ~~[http://www.istructe.org/~~ Institution of Structural Engineers].	+	Structural failure can be devastating.

	It is good practice to employ a structural engineer based on their capability, competence and quality rather than simply by the lowest fee. A good design that explores a wide variety of options to find the best solution can save significant costs over the life of a building.

−	John Nolan, Institution of Structural Engineers President 2012 said in his Presidential Address; "One thing I am particularly proud of from that time is the contribution we made in value engineering the now ubiquitous McDonald’s 'drive-thru' down to a third of the cost and a third of the construction time of the traditionally built design. We did this by standardising the design to a structure that could be factory engineered and fitted out, transported to site in x6 3m by 12m modules and founded on prefabricated foundations. This concept has since saved hundreds of millions of pounds worldwide."
