Engineering practices have evolved tremendously over the past 60 years. I remember a time when we had to use a ruler and an eraser to create our plans. Today, everything is computerized, and thanks to new innovations and your expertise, we are able to design sustainable and energy-efficient projects. This clearly shows that we are firmly focused on the future and that our ambitions remain high!
