L'auteur - J. A. Baird

Jack A. Baird, a Chartered Structural Engineer, specialised initially in structural steelwork before becoming Technical Manager of Newsum Timber Engineers, following which he worked on BSI documents such as design code BS 5268. In 1970 he started the Swedish Timber Council, subsequently to become the Swedish Finnish Timber Council, in which role he produced factual information on many aspects of timber such as structural timber, and helped to persuade Nordic sawmillers to machine stress grade at source to BS 4978 under the Kitemark scheme. He co-authored the first edition of Timber Designers' Manual with Carl Ozelton in the 1970s and was responsible for seeing the second edition through the press.
