?? #DFIMondayRewind ?? In this week’s #DFIThroughTheDecades, we honor a significant moment in our history—the first-ever John Mitchell Lecture, delivered by Elio D’Appolonia in Stresa, Italy, during the 1987 DFI International Conference. Although the lecture wasn’t formally established until after the Stresa conference, D’Appolonia’s presentation in memory of John Mitchell is recognized as the inaugural lecture. This tribute laid the foundation for what would become a hallmark of all future DFI International Conferences—a prestigious invited lecture honoring excellence and advancing knowledge in the deep foundations field. Stay with us as we continue to celebrate 50 years of DFI milestones in our #DFIThroughTheDecades series! #DFI50 #DeepFoundations #JohnMitchellLecture #EngineeringExcellence #DFIHistory
