The Structural Engineer, Volume 31, Issue 9, 1953
From Mr. S. P. BANERJEE (Associate Member) : The writer appreciated the paper from the point of view that it summarised the factors which the Structural Engineers should keep in mind when dealing with problems on foundation design. On the question of choice of foundation, whether rigid or flexible, a design which keeps the balance of the elastic behaviours of the soil and the foundation structure, in keeping with the permissible relative settlements, would appear to be most satisfactory.
THE PRESIDENT, proposing a vote of thanks to the three authors of the Paper, said the Institution was grateful to them for having written and presented it and for the illustrations they had shown.
The PRESIDENT,proposed a vote of thanks to Professor Pugsley for his valuable paper, and for the explanations he had given in presenting it.
