REGULAR CHAPTER

The General Membership of the Institute, except for the Honorary and Student members, was organized into autonomous Chapters comprising of members residing or having principal sites of business in the area to be served by the Chapter. The Regular Chapters are formed for the purpose of: fostering closer association among members in an area or locality; encouraging the members to prepare and discuss papers on the study of civil engineering problems in that area or locality; and encouraging the cooperation with other allied engineering, technical or scientific groups in the area or locality in matters of common interest.
