Birth Date 1902-06-17 Occupation Civil Engineer Entrepreneur Birthplace Santarém Training Institution Instituto Superior Técnico (IST) Biographical Text José de Queirós Vaz Guedes was born on June 17, 1902, in Santarém. In 1929 he married Maria de Lurdes de Vasconcelos and Sá Guerreiro Nuno, having six children, Maria Augusta, Maria Amalia, João, Maria Clara, José and Nuno. He graduated in Civil Engineering from Instituto Superior Técnico. However, his career was marked by his entrepreneurial spirit, having founded one of the most important public works and construction companies in Portugal. He gained great financial autonomy on an individual level with the construction of the Lisboa-Caxias highway. As an engineer he directed many other works such as Magos Dam and continued, even after founding a construction company, to oversee various projects, such as Castelo de Bode Dam or even the Cabril Dam. At the age of 39, in 1947, he founded the company "Sociedade de Empreitadas Moniz da Maia, Duarte & Vaz Guedes, Lda.", together with Bernardo Ernesto Moniz da Maia. This was a smart move as a process of public investment began in Portugal as part of the economic recovery after World War II. They created the company so that they could compete for the Castelo de Bode Dam contest, a work that they would eventually win and that became the company's first major construction. For several years, Dams were the company's specialty, having subsequently extended this field to bridges, viaducts and other road and rail infrastructure. In 1952, the company undergoes several structural changes, changing its name to “Moniz da Maia & Vaz Guedes, Lda.”. In 1965, the company becomes a public limited company and in 1970 it is fully controlled by the Vaz Guedes family, which changes the company name to "Sociedade de Empreitadas Somague, S.A.R.L.". He was a member of the Governing Bodies of the Order of Engineers, in whose capacity he was a member of the Corporate Chamber during the IV legislature, between 1953 and 1957. During that period, he belonged to the XII section of administrative interests, particularly to the fourth subsection of Public Works and Communication. He drafted several proposals, including the Junta Antónoma das Estradas Financing Plan for the period of 1956 to 1970, the reorganization of the Junta Antónoma of Porto and Aveiro, the regulation of the exercise of Public Works contractor, the second part of the Gafanha colonization project and the legal regime for the works of “Fomento Hidroagrícola”. He was also a member of the Board of Directors of the Southern Regional Association of Civil Construction and Public Works, returning to the Corporate Chamber as the employer's representative, between 1963 and 1965. In this period, he belonged to section V, specifically the second subsection of Construction, Glass and Ceramics. This time he also drafted several proposals, including the extension to the private construction industry of the disciplinary measures applicable to public works contractors and the project of the Interim Development Plan for the years 1965 to 1967, both on the Continent and in the islands.
