David graduated from the University of Wales in 1954 with the degree of Geology with Mathematics and Physics, joined the Overseas Division of the Geological Survey and was despatched to what was then British Guiana, to map economic mineral reserves and construction materials. He returned to the UK in 1958 to join the construction company George Wimpey. The post-war boom was beginning and David was engaged as an engineering geologist. In those days industry appreciated the need for research, as little was known for the tasks that had to be completed, and David joined a remarkable group of scientists and engineers at Wimpey’s Central Laboratory at Hayes; the young reader can best visualise this as an ”industrial university”. At that time formal education and training in engineering geology did not exist and as David recalled ”… no one really knew what they were doing; we followed the principles of our subject, used common sense, learnt from wha | 出版日期 | Textbook 2009 | 关键词 | Engineering; Groundwater flow; Practice; Theory; engineering geology; geology; groundwater; landscape/regio | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-540-68626-2 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-642-06725-9 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-540-68626-2 | copyright | Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2009 |
