"Of the Rankine Lectures so far appointed from the United Kingdom I am the first to have spent the early years of my professional life working on the design and construction of civil engineering works. Although I became deeply involved in soil testing during this period and spent more than a year working at the Building Research Station with Dr Cooling and Professor Skempton, the tests which I performed were carried out primarily for the solution of immediate engineering problems and only secondarily as a fundamental study of soil properties
