Synopsis:
Introduces geotechnics to students in engineering, architectural, and construction-related academic programs, covering basic theories of soil behavior and practical applications. Contains sections on background and basics such as soil types and site investigation, engineering properties and behavior of soil deposits, and application of soil mechanics theories, with chapters on earth moving, stability of unsupported slopes, and retaining structures. Includes b&w diagrams and maps. This fifth edition uses SI and US Customary units, simplified application problems, and expanded chapter exercises. For a first course in geotechnics. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
From the Back Cover: Written by an experienced practitioner, this popular book introduces users to a broad range of state-of-the-art geotechnics material, exploring everything from the most basic of concepts to the latest developments. Offering a real-life working knowledge of soil mechanics and foundations, it includes design charts, tables, equations utilized by today's practitioners, and more—providing not just the nuts and bolts, but explicit instructions and applications as well. Examines hydrogeology, soil and groundwater contamination, soil gases, and methods for field sampling, and describes the use of geosynthetics in design and construction. Includes new data on such core geotechnics topics as settlement, soil compression and consolidation, foundation design criteria, and earthquake items. Uses SI system of units throughout, and provides numerous illustrative examples and nearly 500 end-of-chapter problems. For civil, environmental, and architectural engineers; also for professionals in construction management.
