  • Buro Happold is a professional services firm providing engineering consultancy, design, planning, project management and consulting services for all aspects of buildings, infrastructure and the environment. It was founded in 1976, by Sir Edmund Happold in Bath in the southwest of England when he left Ove Arup and Partners to take up a post at the University of Bath as Professor of Architecture and Engineering Design. Originally working mainly on projects in the Middle East, the firm now operates worldwide and in almost all areas of engineering for the built environment, with offices in seven countries. The parent company owns the subsidiary companies Happold Consulting, Happold Media and Happold Safe and Secure. The firm includes a number of specialist engineering consultancy groups.
  • Buro Happold is een Engelse ingenieursbedrijf, gespecialiseerd in het ontwerpen van alle onderdelen van de bebouwde omgeving, van gebouwen tot bruggen. Buro Happold werd gestart in 1976 in Bath, in het zuidwesten van Engeland, door Edmund Happold, toen hij de positie van professor Architecteur en Bouwkunde aan de universiteit Bath aanvaardde en zijn baan als ingenieur bij Arup verliet. Oorspronkelijk werkte Buro Happold bijna exclusief in het Midden-Oosten, maar nu onderneemt het werk op elk continent en heeft kantoren in zeven landen. Edmund Happold werkte eerst bij Arup, waar hij aan het ontwerp van gebouwen als het Sydney Opera House en Centre Pompidou in Parijs werkte. Hij was een expert in lichte en rekbare constructies. Hierdoor onderneemt Buro Happold nog steeds veel werk in rekbare constructies, zoals de Millennium Dome in Londen. Edmund Happold, vaker Ted genoemd, stierf in 1996.
