Did you know September marks a number of engineering anniversaries around the world?

From iconic bridges and tunnels to dams and landmark infrastructure, milestones were recorded for the Sydney Opera House, Millau Viaduct, the Channel Tunnel, Hoover Dam and the Panama Canal — all in September.

So we asked our engineers one simple question...

WHAT'S THE ENGINEERING FEAT THAT YOU THINK IS THE MOST AMAZING?

Their answers might surprise you. 🌍

From ancient wonders to modern marvels, it's a reminder that great engineering has always pushed the boundaries of what's possible.

Now it's your turn... What's the most amazing engineering feat you've ever seen or learned about? Drop it in the comments. 👇

At FIELD, engineering isn't just what we do. It's what fascinates us.

Inspired. Informed. And just the right amount of nerdy. ⚙️

How heavy is heavy? 🤔

When lifting hundreds—or even thousands—of tonnes, close enough isn't good enough.

That's why FIELD Engineers developed our own modular heavy weighing kit, designed to accurately measure the mass and centre of gravity (CoG) of structures of almost any size.

From large industrial platforms to a 1,250-tonne ship loader, the system expands to suit the job—giving clients the confidence to select the right crane, design safer lifts and reduce unnecessary risk and cost.

📏 Precision data. Smarter lifting. Better decisions.

Bit sad to see Mighty Samson meet its end. This machine first worked at the Syncrude Oils Sands project in Canada before being relocated to Newlands Mine in Queensland.
REB Engineering re-erected it for Newlands in 2004. The job was managed by the legendary John Togne, and had a dream team of REB supervisors and tradesmen that really knew their business. Even the union delegates weren’t such bad blokes (with 22 years of hindsight).

What if your infrastructure could tell you there's a problem before it becomes one?

That's the power of high-precision 3D laser scanning.

For three Bowen Basin mine sites, FIELD Engineers transformed millions of data points on critical conveyor tunnels into practical engineering insight—helping identify structural changes earlier, supporting proactive risk management and improving life-extension planning.

⚡ Faster audits.
📊 Better data.
🛠️ Smarter decisions.

When something goes wrong, the biggest question isn't always what happened.

It's why.

That's where forensic engineering comes in.

From technical investigations to expert evidence, forensic engineers help uncover the facts through engineering analysis—not assumptions.

🎥 In this reel, one of FIELD’s discipline specialists, Dr Charlotte Nash-Stewart explains what forensic engineering really involves.

Big project. Lots of unknowns.

You don't need all the answers before you call us. That's what our team is here for — engineers experienced in heavy industry and infrastructure and specialists who, more often than not, have seen something similar before.

FIELD's feasibility and advisory services help clients define scope, reduce risk and save valuable planning time before work begins.

No lifting operation is too complex for our award-winning engineers. ✊

Decades of cranes and rigging operation in the field means that every lift study, feasibility study and lifting strategy undertaken by our team is grounded in real-world operation.

We anticipate issues in advance to ensure efficient lifting without surprises. Raise heavy loads, not eyebrows! 👀
