Geotechnical Engineering

Designed for civil engineering students taking courses that introduce Geotechnology followed by a study of Foundations!For the first time, a pioneering approach for predicting the nonlinear behavior of laterally loaded long vertical and batter piles. The latest developments in the design of drilled pier foundations and mechanically stabilized earth retaining walls are explained.Geotechnical Engineering discussessoil formation, index properties, and classificationsoil permeability, seepage, and the effect of water on stress conditionsstresses due to surface loadssoil compressibility and consolidationshear strength characteristics of soilsGeotechnical Engineering will prove an essential resource for practicing civil, geoenvironmental, geotechnical, environmental, chemical, soil, and foundation engineers; geochemists, geophysicists, and biogeochemists; and soil scientists and agronomists; and an invaluable text for upper-level undergraduate and graduate students in these disciplines.
