The partnership of Arter & Speece was formed in 1956, and lasted until Dean Edwin Arter purchased the interest of William Speece in 1966. At that time, Arter formed a new firm, Dean E. Arter & Associates, and managed it until his death in 1995.[1] Speece continued his engineering practice, alone and in partnership. For a time, he taught structures full-time at the University of Nebraska School of Architecture.
