Contents:
TOC Classification and physical properties of soils -- Permeability and flow of water in soils -- Total and effective stress -- Shear strength of soils -- Eurocode 7 -- Site investigation -- Lateral Earth pressure -- Retaining structures -- Bearing capacity and shallow foundations -- Pile foundations -- Foundation settlement and soil compression -- Rate of foundation settlement -- Stability of slopes -- Compaction and soil mechanics aspects of highway design.
Summary: Maintains the content on all soil mechanics subject areas - groundwater flow, soil physical properties, stresses, shear strength, consolidation and settlement, slope stability, retaining walls, shallow and deep foundations, site investigation - but has been expanded to include an explanation of how to use Eurocode 7 for geotechnical design.
