[edit] Just a thought

To all editors-
  • Do we have anything about his early life?
  • He worked as teacher at the Institute - how many years? from when to when?
  • was considered to be one of the leading experts in concrete steel constructions in Sweden early 1900 - by whom?
  • research,teaching, headmaster at the institute - if possible, lets consolidate this into one seperate section
This seems like a promising article, so thought I'd add a few thoughts to it. Will start work on it as soon as possible. Happy editing,xC | ☎ 21:54, 14 December 2007 (UTC)
The article is changed. More detailed information about Henrik Kreüger is not available. Important fact is that he helped the construction company Kreuger & Toll to get the business running when Ivar Kreuger and Paul Toll formed the company in 1908 and he was responsible for the basic engineering calculations for a number of large prestigious contracts the first years such as the Stockholm Stadium, 1911-12 and the department store Nordiska Kompaniet (NK). How many years he worked for the company as a consultant is not clear, probably at least up to 1915. Without Henrik Kreüger, who also introduced engineer Paul Toll for Ivar Kreuger, the company Kreuger & Toll would probably never had been founded. Lidingo SWE (talk) 08:26, 19 December 2007 (UTC).
