Poor soil conditions are usually associated with excess groundwater or inadequate strength, which leads to excessive deformation or failure. Improvement of the soil may be needed temporarily, while construction operations lasr, or permanently. The same techniques are applicable all over the world. This book reviews the techniques which are used to improve the engineering behaviour of soils, either in situ or when they are used as a construction material. This illustrated account includes up-to-date references. "Engineering Treatment of Soils" may be valuable for geotechnical engineers working in professional firms and academic institutions all over the world. Many of the techniques are specialized and the contents of the book could be usseful for civil engineers, engineering geologists and mining engineers unfamiliar with them and for students and young engineers.
