Original Abstract
The profession of structural engineer has been in a forefront of society from ancient times. But as other mature professions, it has developed significantly. Most of the development is associated with enormous growth in automation (see Industry 4.0), and that results in shrinking space for the work of structural engineers. That space is further reduced by developing standards and codes, and that results in significant changes in requirements for the work of structural engineering workers and therefore of investment cost. At the same time, construction industry is going through very thought times, mainly because of lowest unemployment numbers in years. Low unemployment numbers joined by high peaks of economy causes a huge prevalence of demand over supply. These two factors combined, causes that new workers need to react to everchanging requirements for their skills. But also, it’s giving them significant leverage for their demands on employers, because of low competition on the market
