| Abstract | This is a record of a conference of most of the active Canadian workers in the field of Soil Mechanics held in the Council Chamber of the National Research Council of Canada in Ottawa on 28 and 29 April, 1947, under the auspices of the Associate Committee on Soil and Snow Mechanics. The meeting was held at this time in order to coincide with the visit to Canada of Mr. L.F.Cooling, head of the Soil Mechanics Section of the British Building Research Station, Garston, near London, England. Unfortunately, Mr. Cooling was unwell on arrival in Canada and was therefore able to attend only one session of the conference. He was represented throughout by his assistant, Mr. Meyerhof, who contributed to the proceedings of the meeting as will be been later. |
