The Committee was established by the American Society of Civil Engineers in 1964. The Historic Civil Engineering Landmark program was developed by the Committee as a means of bringing proper recognition to historic civil engineering projects, structures, and sites.
Return to the Table of Contents
Correspondence, printed material, photographs. This is a collection of the files of Mr. Joe J. Rady, former Chairman of the Texas Section of the Committee on the History and Heritage of American Civil Engineering. The committee was established by the American Society of Civil Engineers in 1964. Mr. Rady was instrumental in organizing one of the first section committees of the History and Heritage of Civil Engineering. In 1968 he was appointed to the National Committee and served on it until 1976 .
Included are the files of sixty-five National Historic Landmark projects approved by the Committee from 1965 through 1977. Each project designated as an Historic Civil Engineering Landmark is in a folder which contains the technical and historical information with full description of the project. Most of the folders include discussions and supplemental information gathered by the Committee during its study and discussion of the project. An index is included which lists chronologically the National Historic Landmarks approved by the ASCE. A brief description of each project is given. The National Landmark folders are arranged in alphabetical order by landmark name.
Included also are the Committee's files on Local Historic Engineering Landmarks. Over the years many historic projects are submitted to the Committee for its consideration, but are deemed worthy of local historical interest rather than national interest. In these cases the Committee recommends that these projects be designated as Local Historic Civil Engineering Landmarks. The American Society of Civil Engineers then refers these recommendations to the proper local section of the ASCE to designate the project as a Local Historic Landmark and aids in providing a bronze marker for placement on such engineering projects. The local landmark folders are arranged alphabetically according to the state where they are located. An index is provided giving a brief description of each project.
See folder 209-1-1 for a guide to the History and Heritage Programs of the ASCE. Folder 209-5-24 contains a history of the Texas Section.
See also: History Today, v. 30, March 1980 for articles on the development of the use of energy in England and the Continent.
