Observation, Quantification, and Judgment: Terzaghi and Engineering GeologySource: Journal of Geotechnical Engineering:;1991:;Volume ( 117 ):;issue: 011Author:Herbert H. Einstein

Abstract: A review of Terzaghi's published and unpublished papers and notes made it possible to trace his way from geology over geotechnical engineering to engineering geology. Not only does this reflect his career, it also is the path which led him from observation to quantification to judgment and culminated in the integration of these three components in his concept of engineering geology and, specifically, in the observational method.
