1995 Karl Terzaghi Lecture: Roy Olson: Settlement of Embankments on Soft Clays

Roy Olson of the University of Texas at Austin delivered the 31st Terzaghi Lecture at the 1995 ASCE Convention in San Diego, CA. His lecture was titled "Settlement of Embankments on Soft Clays." This version of the lecture was recorded November 8, 1996 at Texas A&M University. This lectureship was established by the Soil Mechanics and Foundations Division (now the Geo-Institute) of the Society by the solicitation of gifts from the many friends and admirers of Karl Terzaghi, Hon.M.ASCE. It was instituted by the Board of Direction on October 10, 1960. At about yearly intervals and upon recommendation of the Geo-Institute Board of Governors, the Executive Director will invite a distinguished engineer to deliver a "Terzaghi Lecture" at an appropriate meeting of the Society. Karl Terzaghi founded the branch of civil engineering science known as soil mechanics, the study of the properties of soil under stresses and under the action of flowing water.
