I am looking to hire a consulting structural engineer and/or construction consultant in the Wichita Falls-Oklahoma City area. An understanding of construction and repair methods and repair costs would be a big plus. Making structural inspections and recommendations would be part of the job. A retired or independent engineer would be a perfect fit for this periodic work. Normal fees would be in the $100 to $125 per hour range. It is possible this could be a long term association.

BoomerGuru suggested posting this as maybe one of you in the group knew of a retired Premier Bridge Engineer with many years of long and tall bridge project experience.

It would require part time consulting as part of a team- meeting a few times in Chicago, working from home, and with a couple of site visits to Arizona/Nevada. Hourly fees and travel paid.
