William Fairbairn, Scottish engineer
William Fairbairn (1789-1874). 1868 illustration of the Scottish engineer Sir William Fairbairn. During his apprenticeship, Fairbairn befriended the young George Stephenson. Fairbairn excelled at structural engineering, devising the box girder bridge and founding a major shipyard at Millwall in London. His greatest work was in the analysis of structural failures such as metal fatigue, building large-scale testing rigs and greatly adding to the safety of boilers and pressurised pipes.
