"Established as a standard textbook for students of geotechnical engineering, this new edition of Geotechnical Engineering provides a solid grounding in the mechanics of soils and soil-structure interaction. Renato Lancellotta gives a clear presentation of the fundamental princi…
With the improved energy efficiency, high level of structural integrity and aesthetically-pleasing finishes achieved in modern earth construction, it is now one of the leading choices for sustainable, low-energy building. This title provides an exploration of materials and techn…
"Unsaturated Soil Mechanics is an introduction to this emerging field for students in civil engineering, environmental engineering, soil science, groundwater hydrology, and geoscience, as well as an inclusive reference for professional geotechnical engineers, soil scientists, ge…
A selection of papers by Professor AW Skempton, aiming to show his breadth of achievement in the field of soilmechanics. The chosen papers are reproduced chronologically, most of them falling into three subject groups: soil properties, stability of slopes, and foundations. This …
