An Introduction to Geotechnical Engineering 3rd Edition

Description

by Robert D Holtz, William D. Kovacs, Thomas C. Sheahan

An Introduction to Geotechnical Engineering introduces geotechnical engineering and its applications to civil  engineering practice using easy-to-understand language. It focuses on  both the fundamental and applied, covering the engineering  classification, behavior and properties of soils necessary for the  design and construction of foundations and earth structures. To place  theory into context, the engineering significance of the property being  discussed is presented, along with why the property is needed, how it is  determined or measured, and how it is used in specific design  situations. Simple geotechnical designs are illustrated where  applicable. Fully worked example problems let you follow the solution  steps and check your understanding. More advanced topics in shear  strength of soils and rocks is included in the final chapter.

The 3rd Edition features 3 new chapters on the fundamental areas of foundation  engineering: shallow foundations; lateral earth pressures and earth  retaining structures; and deep foundations.
