Summary/Abstract: Acad. prof. Cristea Mateescu is one of the greatest Romanian engineers and scientists, a personality of perfect honour and sincerity, loving the truth above all. His simplicity and modesty became proverbial. But the greatest merit of acad. Prof. Cristea Mateescu is the one to have created a Romanian school of hydromechanics. He conducted studies and executed dams, hydroelectric plants, foundations for thermal turbogenerator groups (Floresti, Campina, Comanesti). Following the earthquake of 1940 and the bombings of the Second World War, he carried out the consolidation of several large, heavily damaged buildings in Bucharest.
