- EQUIPMENT’S AND FIELD MAINTENANCE THEREOF 85 Discussion Mr R. M. Wynne-Edwards observed that the Author had made a special study for many years of muck-shifting by machine, and the Paper, therefore, gave an expert’s view of the problem. It was an important problem, because the present-day almost universal use of the machine for excavating had made changes in the carrying out of civil engineering works which were so far-reaching that their consequences were only partly realized. A great deal of civil engineering work consisted in moving earth, or some other material, from one place to another, and for more than a hundred years it had grown up round the performance of the navvy...
