      Historique

      The Engineering Division of the Department of Public Works came into existence in 1956, when the former Chief Engineer was replaced with a Chief Hydraulic Engineer and a Chief Sanitary Engineer. The two engineers filed separate reports in the annual report of the Department of Public Works, but were headed for a time by an Deputy Minister responsible for Engineering, and together the two activities of the Engineers were referred to as the Engineering Division.

      In 1960, the Chief Architect's Branch assumed responsibility for the Chief of Sanitary Engineering and the Chief of Civil Engineering, which both became divisions within the branch. Later, the number of engineering divisions within the branch multiplied and included a Mechanical Engineering Division, an Electrical Engineering Division, and a Structural Engineering Division. However, only the Civil Engineering Division and the Sanitary Engineering Division continued to file separate reports within the Departmental Annual Report.
