Introduction
In 1818, civil Engineers gathered in a coffee shop in London, the first professional technical institution in the world
The Institution of Civil Engineers (ICE) has been established.
In the United States, its social status was established in 1907 by Wyoming law as the Professional Engineer System (P.E.).
And in order to contribute to the reconstruction of the devastated land of Japan after World War II, and to contribute to world peace,
The engineer system was established with reference to the professional engineer system in the United States.
In 1951, the Association of Japan Engineers was born, and in 1957, the Engineers Act was enacted.
PACIFIC CONSULTANTS is an equal contribution between Muneki SHIRAISHI and Eric FLOOR, as well as Antonin Raymond.
It was founded in 1951 as U.S. Corporation (PACIFIC CONSULTANTS Incorporated).
