It remained under the control of the Division of Soils until 1958, when the Section gained its independence. In 1967 the Section became the Division of Soil Mechanics.

From "CSIRO research for Australia" (1962 pdf page 25:
"Engineering problems of the soil are studied by a Soil Mechanics Section which was formerly a unit of the Division of Soils. This group became an independent section in 1958, with laboratories in Melbourne. It is concerned with basic physical characteristics of soils, soil stabilization, and soils as foundations. "
