Spirit of Krebs Ovesen Session-
Challenges in Geotechnical Engineering at XIV ECSMGE in Madrid,
Spain
( 23/9/2007,
Hotel Meli-Castilla in Madrid)
On Sunday afternoon, 23 September, 2007 at Hotel
Meli-Castilla in Madrid, a session in the Spirit of Krebs Ovesen, was
held to commemorate the contributions of the late Niels Krebs Ovesen,
who passed away on the last day of 2005. The session was jointly
organized by the Danish Geotechnical Society, ETC 10 Evaluation of
Eurocode 7, and TC 23 Limit State Design in Geotechnical Engineering,
and took place as one of the special events of the XIV ECSMGE. The
session lasted 4 hours and was attended by more than 80 people including
Krebs’wife Hanne, daughters Kamilla and Mette, 4 grandchildren and Prof.
Seco e Pinto, the current ISSMGE President.
