Abstract

The 2020 Binnie lecture delivered to the British Dam Society on 5th October 2020 is being published in two parts. This first part is a description of three significant projects that were important in my early development and maturing as a dam engineer, drawing out some of the lessons I have leaned on through the rest of my career. One of my underlying thoughts in selecting this theme, was to show how access to such a variety of experiences made it far easier to acquire the knowledge and experience required of a panel engineer when I started, than it is today. The second part presents some views on the development of our current reservoir inspection practice, which may be helpful in the light of the reducing numbers of all reservoirs panel engineers.
