My father, Robert Myers, who has died aged 86, was a structural engineer and co-founder of the civil and structural engineering practice Price & Myers.

Robert began his career in 1961 with Ove Arup and Partners, where he worked on a new building for Somerville College, Oxford. He then spent a period with the construction company Cementation in London and Tunisia. He was chief site engineer for the Marylebone flyover across Edgware Road, constructed from board-marked concrete in the mid-60s.
