Abstract | This Annual Report is a summary of the activities of Canadian members of the International Society of Soil Mechanics and Foundation Engineering, for the period January 1956 to June 1958. It is published for the purpose of keeping Canadians informed of those soil mechanics investigations which are being conducted in their own country. In this way, it will assist in overcoming the natural handicap offered by the widespread geographical distribution of soil mechanics work in Canada, It will supplement the Annual Canadian Soil Mechanics Conference, which has now been held for eleven years under the auspices of the Associate Committee on Soil and Snow Mechanics. |
