Tips for renewing your registration

RPEQ renewals for 2020-21 will officially begin on Friday, 1 May 2020. The leadup to the renewal period this year has been far from ideal with the emergence of the coronavirus (COVID-19). This has caused problems for BPEQ – firstly having to postpone the renewal period start date – and of course RPEQs. The title of postal and email communications alerting RPEQs about the renewal period appears to have led to some confusion about when renewals would actually begin. To be clear, the renewal period is Friday, 1 May to Tuesday, 30 June 2020.

To help make the renewal process as seamless as possible we’ve included some tips and frequently asked questions in this e-news issue. For comprehensive information on renewing, visit the RPEQ Renewal page on the BPEQ website or read the information contained in the postal or email notice.

I am sure most readers will have noticed Kylie Mercer’s absence from BPEQ. I have been acting in the role of Registrar since late 2018 when Kylie went on secondment to another government agency. Kylie has since resigned as Registrar and BPEQ has begun recruitment of a new permanent replacement. The new Registrar is expected to be announced in the coming months.

2BPEQ E-news Issue 66 April 2020

“...the renewal period is Friday, 1 May to Tuesday, 30 June 2020.”

The appointment of a new Registrar is timely with BPEQ celebrating 90 years, ongoing work to assist the Victorian Government implement its own registration scheme for engineers, reviews of the areas of engineering and continuing professional development and the potential creation of a registration type for graduate engineers.

A WORD FROM THE REGISTRAR

I am writing this while ‘working from home’. For someone that has been involved in on-site construction activities for many years, to say that this is a little bit of a change for me, is an understatement. So, a big shout out to those electrical and electronic engineers that are keeping us connected in these interesting times.

One contemporary issue for the Board is the use, or more accurately the misuse, of digital signatures. Digital signatures however are here to stay. I recently had a call from a concerned RPEQ about the unauthorised use of their digital signature. We spoke about the responsibilities of RPEQ’s in managing their digital signatures and thought that this might be an appropriate time to address this publically.

A RPEQ’s signature is something of significant professional and personal value. It may be used to confirm that professional engineering services have been done by or directly supervised by a RPEQ, or even required under certain rules and regulations to ‘certify’ works and services.

‘In the old days’, long before the current coronavirus crisis, it was easy to request a wet signature on a document. In the current situation it may not be possible to obtain a wet ink signature on a document and technology may even make doing so unnecessary. Whilst there are several current electronic processes that internally certify a document, externally this is fairly easy to get around and have a document falsely authorised by someone, in this case a RPEQ.

This environment means that we must be more rigorous in our approach to signatures. If you want to be assured that the signature is genuine, the best way is to contact the signatory directly.

“...we must be more rigorous in our approach to signatures.”

So how does a RPEQ protect that all important signature? A very good question and I would love to have the perfect solution. Unfortunately, there will always be the risk of someone taking a RPEQ’s signature and misusing it. However, there are some things that we as professionals can do to at least minimise the risk of fraudulent use of our RPEQ signatures:

• Have a different signature for signing as a RPEQ, coupled with your RPEQ number, as opposed to your normal usage

• Keep a register of when you use your signature (this allows you to be able to quickly confirm the authenticity of a document)

• Do not allow others to place your signature on a document

• If you have a digital signature in the workplace, ensure that it is removed from the company system when you leave

Misuse of a RPEQ’s digital signature may equate to a breach of the Professional Engineers Act or the Code of Practice for RPEQs; and just as seriously may be an act of fraud. The Board should be informed if a RPEQ believes their signature has been used without their authorisation. The Board has investigated a number of cases recently that involved the unauthorised use of a RPEQ’s digital signature to suggest that a drawing had been done by that RPEQ. This is the most common - along with alterations being done to designs and keeping the original signature - situation involving misuse of a RPEQ’s signature that the Board encounters.

Ultimately, RPEQs have the responsibility to demonstrate when it is their authorised signature. A record of when they use their signature is one way of doing this. The other is to encourage people to contact the signatory and check to see if the signature was correctly applied.

For more information on protecting you RPEQ signature see articles in BPEQ e-news issues in January 2018 and May 2018.

DAWSON WILKIE

Chair and Regional Representative

BE Civil, FIE Aust, FIPWEAQ, RPEQ, GAICD, CPEng, EngExec, APEC Engineer

Dawson Wilkie was first appointed to the Board as Chair and regional representative in January 2015 and was re-appointed in April 2018. A qualified civil engineer working in private consultancy, Dawson has worked in the profession for more than 35 years. Graduating from the Queensland Institute of Technology in 1979, Dawson went on to work with the New South Wales Department of Main Roads and then in local government with Dubbo City Council and Townsville City Council. Dawson was the Managing Director of a medium-sized construction company and then the Chief Executive Officer at an engineering firm before moving into private consultancy.

In 1988, Duncan worked at the Robotics Division in the Mechanical Engineering Laboratory, Ministry of International Trade and Industry, Tsukuba, Japan; and as a visiting professor in the Systems and Design Division, Mechanical Engineering Department, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Boston, USA.

“...world-first prototype fuel and emission-saving hybrid gasoline-electric vehicle transmission in 1979.”

In 2020, BPEQ turns 90. To celebrate this milestone BPEQ is acknowledging the achievements, projects, innovations, discoveries and stories of RPEQs past and present.

The public can appreciate engineering skill and expertise in the built environment but what about those inconspicuous creations and developments that contribute to the way we live? For instance, emissions reduction technology and renewable energy projects pioneered by Australian and Queensland engineers.

With World Creativity and Innovation Day being celebrated in April it is the perfect opportunity to look at the creativity and innovation of RPEQ Duncan B Gilmore (Mechanical, registered since 1980), the Managing Director and President of Gilmore Engineers Pty Ltd, e3k and the Bright Devices Group Pty Ltd.

Duncan graduated from The University of Queensland in 1972 with a First Class Honours degree in Mechanical Engineering and received The University Medal. He went on to complete a Master of Engineering Science degree in 1975, and a PhD degree in 1977.

In 1977 he joined the Queensland Electricity Commission and later took up the position of project engineer on a world-first prototype fuel and emission-saving hybrid gasoline-electric vehicle transmission in 1979. In 1982 the federally funded vehicle was demonstrated at a World Congress held in Melbourne. Many novel features, such as brake energy regeneration, power flow control via a computer, and a rotary computerised mode controller (similar to iDrive today) were demonstrated. Today, many vehicles incorporate similar features first revealed in Australia in 1982, including hybrid drive.

The hybrid technology was incorporated into a Ford Falcon – a common sight in many Australian garages. Photo courtesy: Duncan Gilmore.

BPEQ 90th ANNIVERSARY

CELEBRATING RPEQS AND THEIR ACHIEVEMENTSPictured: Duncan Gilmore

5BPEQ E-news Issue 66 April 2020

Duncan was a Senior Lecturer in Mechanical Engineering at The University of Queensland from 1986 to 1993. He also aspired to the office Vice President of Engineers Australia.

Duncan left the University in 1993 to form Gilmore Engineers Pty Ltd, a leading edge consultancy specialising in research and development and failure analysis. He expanded his company with the introduction of e3k, a research and development arm in 2001.

After being a Queensland finalist in 2010, e3k went on to receive four Engineering Excellence Awards from Engineers Australia including being named an overall National Winner in 2012, for the engineering design and testing of the SeaUrchin Marine Power Generator.

“...e3k went on to receive four Engineering Excellence Awards from Engineers Australia...”

Notably, in February 2014, Atlantis Resources Limited, a company grown in Queensland and New South Wales from the technology developed by e3k in the years 2001 to 2004, was publically listed on the London Stock Exchange. The world-patented technology, part-owned by investment bank Morgan Stanley since 2007, relates to underwater tidal renewable power generation turbines. This project represented another important early contribution by Australia to the introduction of renewable electric power generation. The company is currently installing 269 turbines on the seabed of the Pentland Firth, north of Scotland, thereby contributing to the Country becoming the first green data storage centre.

Further, in 2013, the medical device named ‘Agilitas’ which was wholly developed by e3k over five years, was launched for commercial sale by Bright Devices Pty Ltd. It is a smart visual cueing device designed to assist persons suffering primarily from ‘Freeze of Gait’ (FOG) associated with Parkinson’s Disease. An Australian Patent was awarded in 2012 and a US Patent in 2019.

Duncan became a RPEQ in 1980, and Gilmore Engineers Pty Ltd became a Registered Professional Engineering company of Queensland in 1993.

This year is a celebration of the achievements, projects, innovations, discoveries and stories of RPEQs past and present.  BPEQ encourages RPEQs to share their thoughts –

• What are some of Queensland’s great engineering feats?

• Who was the RPEQ/s who helped deliver the project?

• Are there unsung heroes in the profession?

CITY HALL– SYMBOL OF BRISBANEThink engineering in Brisbane and many significant landmarks come to mind – the Old Windmill, the Story Bridge, or the much more modern Brisbane Skytower, the tallest structure in Brisbane. But the building that has come to symbolise Brisbane is one that was for 30 years the tallest in Brisbane – City Hall.

Inaugurated on 8 April 1930, the vision for Brisbane City Hall began in 1909. Ratepayer opposition to the estimated £180,000 cost of construction calculated to around $25 million today and disagreement over its location saw plans delayed for almost a decade. The current site was settled by 1917 – the other potential site in Fortitude Valley was sold to the Catholic Church who planned to build the Holy Name Cathedral – with the laying of the first foundation stone by Queensland Governor Sir Hamilton Gould-Adams, despite there being no plans drawn.

Another two years passed before plans from architects Hall and Prentice were designed, submitted and approval given to the Italian Renaissance style building complete with chariot statues (construction costs were estimated at £460,000). A second foundation stone was laid by Edward, the Prince of Wales (later King Edward VIII / Duke of Windsor) in July 1920.

“...at the time was one Australia’s most expensive buildings...”

City Hall took 10 years to build and came at a cost of around £980,000. At the time it was one Australia’s most expensive buildings and the second largest construction project, behind only the Sydney Harbour Bridge.

RPEQ Russell McWilliam (RPEQ# 53) was the consulting structural engineer for City Hall. The only part of Brisbane

City Hall not entirely McWilliam’s work is the auditorium dome. The design and building of City Hall incorporated many advanced technical elements for its time with a modern steel reinforced concrete column and beam structure. Local materials were used as much as possible in the construction – including granite from Samford and Enoggera and sandstone from Helidon.

Like Brisbane City Hall, the Board of Professional Engineers of Queensland is celebrating 90 Years in 2020. To celebrate this milestone BPEQ is acknowledging the significant projects like Brisbane City Hall and RPEQs such as Russell McWilliam that have contributed to the development of Queensland.

Brisbane City Hall is a remarkable engineering achievement. It is listed with the National Trust and included in the National Estate and the Queensland Heritage Act 1992 and also acknowledged by RPEQs who voted for Queensland’s greatest engineering feat.

YOUR QUESTIONS ABOUTDIRECT SUPERVISION

ANSWERED

Under the Professional Engineers Act 2002, registration is required for anyone carrying out a professional engineering service in Queensland or for Queensland. It is an offence for unregistered persons to undertake professional engineering services. However, there is an exception that allows unregistered persons to carry out professional engineering services only if they are directly supervised by someone who is a RPEQ.

Obligations are placed both on the unregistered person who is being directly supervised and the RPEQ who is providing the direct supervision. Direct supervision requirements are intentionally onerous.

To establish direct supervision, the following elements must be shown to exist and supported by evidence that meets each requirement:

BPEQ E-news Issue 66 April 2020

ELEMENT REQUIREMENTThe supervision must be direct; and the supervising RPEQ must have actual knowledge of the services/project.

The supervising RPEQ must have direct contact and not through a third person.

The supervising RPEQ must direct the person in the carrying out of the service.

The supervising RPEQ must actively direct the unregistered person in carrying out the professional engineering services. A passive or observational role is not sufficient.

The supervising RPEQ must oversee the carrying out of the service by the person.

The supervising RPEQ must be involved from the beginning and throughout all the professional engineering services provided in each project/contract.

The supervising RPEQ must evaluate the carrying out of the service by the person.

The supervising RPEQ must evaluate the professional engineering services and ensure they are being carried out to the standard expected of a RPEQ as if the RPEQ was undertaking the professional engineering services personally.

The supervising RPEQ must take full professional responsibility for the service.

The requirement is that all professional engineering services are carried out to the standard expected of a RPEQ and that the supervising RPEQ takes overt professional responsibility for them.

Direct supervision was the topic presented by BPEQ for a recent Engineers Australia hosted webinar. Here’s a few

of the questions asked during the webinar about direct supervision:

QUESTION ANSWER

Is keeping a diary of conversations an adequate record of supervision?

Not by itself, a collective of evidence is required by the RPEQ and supervised person to support the elements discussed in this article (and outlined in the webinar), not just one item.

Is it necessary to have a RPEQ to sign off the drawing/document, since evidence of direct supervision is what matters?

Yes. All work done by the RPEQ is part of the whole supervision process.

If the engineer being supervised is also an experienced RPEQ, would that make any difference to direct supervision requirements?

Yes. Direct supervision requirements contained in the Act do not apply to RPEQs. Direct supervision is only applicable to unregistered persons.

Given the onus is on the non-RPEQ, who needs to maintain the records of supervision? The non-RPEQ, the RPEQ or both?

Both

I hear and understand the point that non-RPEQs must be directly supervised by a RPEQ, but what onus is there on a supervising RPEQ to ensure the non-RPEQ is actually being supervised in the correct way?

As RPEQs are bound by the Code of Practice and are obligated to provide services competently and professionally within their area of registration. This is no different to providing the same service through the unregistered person.

Software development seems to be a grey area. I have Bachelor qualified unregistered engineers who report to me writing programs for electrically operated industrial machines. As a RPEQ in Electrical field what level of ‘supervision’ am I required to provide?

No different to a RPEQ in any other field of engineering if the service being supervised is a professional engineering service.

Would evidence of direct supervision, be meeting minutes and emails or do they need to be more formal?

As discussed this is but one aspect but wouldn’t be enough itself. A collective of evidence is required by the RPEQ and supervised person, not just one item.

If the supervisor sits in the same room as the unregistered person, and so most guidance is verbal and in-person, how much additional evidence of supervision is required? Does there need to be hard evidence of all outcomes of conversations?

It is advisable to show direct supervision for evidence of these conversations and instructions. For example, minutes of meetings emailed contemporaneous to each meeting or follow up emails confirming the discussions had and instructions given.

Who has to keep the evidence if I am working as contractor and not direct employee?

Both parties need to keep similar corroborating evidence.

Given a junior engineer (unregistered) forms a solid trust connection to a senior RPEQ over the time, would it appropriate for the RPEQ to pass the authority to the junior engineer to lead the projects with minimum supervision from the senior engineer?

No. Seniority and relationships are not elements of direct supervision and as long as the junior engineer remains unregistered they will need to be directly supervised.

Is a project manager who is managing design consultants and construction contractors required to be a RPEQ or supervised?

This would depend on the project and the extent to which professional engineering services are being provided. If the project manager is carrying out professional engineering services, applying engineering knowledge and judgement, then they would need to be a RPEQ themselves or directly supervised.
