The Department of Civil Engineering has been increasingly interested
in the effects of wind on engineered structures. In 1971 the Institute for
Disaster Research was created in response to information gained from the 1970
Lubbock Tornado. In 1988 another center, the Wind Engineering Research Center,
was created to broaden the scope of research.
The collection contains official correspondence relating to The
History of Engineering Program, Chairman Dr. Ernst W. Keisling, and the
Institute for Disaster Research. Included also is the Proceedings of the Fifth
U.S. National Conference on Wind Engineering.
