Our globally recognised Knowledge Centre is an essential resource 

for anyone involved in public works in Queensland

As a professional association, it is incumbent on us to bring together in one place all the knowledge, expertise and learnings that will benefit practitioners in our sector.

The IPWEAQ Knowledge Centre achieved global recognition with inclusion in the Library Publishing Directory. The Directory is published by the Library Publishing Coalition in Atlanta, Georgia and details the publishing records of academic and specialist libraries across the world.  


The Directory awarded the Knowledge Centre 4 on a scale of 1-5 for its ‘stage of publishing efforts’ after just two years following launch. This bodes well for future development and expansion of the Knowledge Centre and the likelihood of continuing inclusion in this and other international publications going forward.


The Knowledge Centre is fully searchable by subject, key words, speaker/author, event, type (image, podcast, articles, PowerPoint etc) or by date. It includes audio visual recordings, articles, PowerPoint presentations, podcasts, reports, case studies, recent media and other information on engineering in the public works sector of interest to Queensland practitioners. 


Much of the content in the Knowledge Centre is restricted to IPWEAQ members. If you are not a member, you may wish to join. 


Some content is also restricted to subscribers of our technical solutions including Standard Drawings, QUDM and the Lower Order Road Design Guidelines (LORDG).


If you do have access to paid or subscribed sections of the Knowledge Centre, no items will display ie the results page will be blank. If you wish to subscribe, please contact Mark.
