The FESI Council

The FESI Council is a group of highly experienced ESI professionals from industry, business, universities, and regulatory and government bodies, who are convinced of the benefits of engineering structural integrity. Council members disseminate knowledge from FESI outwards through their organisations, and lever in knowledge from their own and their partner organisations, to benefit a wider audience than would otherwise be possible. The diverse mix of members on the FESI Council ensures that ESI is examined from all angles.
