OBITUARY
Chester P. Siess,
prominent structural engineer, scholar and teacher, died Jan.
14, in Urbana, Ill. He was 87. Siess’ lifelong study
of structural concrete influenced many of today’s codes
and standards for concrete buildings, bridges and nuclear
reactors. Siess is most recognized for his seminal research
of "moment shear," which in the mid-20th Century
opened up new designs for prestressed and reinforced concrete
systems. Among colleagues and students, he was well known
for making difficult concepts easy to understand. Siess retired
in 1978 as professor emeritus of civil engineering at the
University of Illinois. Throughout his 67-year career, he
received numerous medals and honors for his work.
