Drilled shafts in rock are widely used as foundations of heavy
structures such as highway bridges and tall buildings. Although
much has been learned about the analysis and design of drilled
shafts in rock, all the major findings are published in the form of
reports and articles in technical journals and conference
proceedings. This book is the first to present and summarize the
latest information in one volume, highlighting for the reader the
principle differences between foundations in soil, and foundations
in rock masses containing discontinuities.
This book presents methods for characterizing discontinuities in
jointed rock masses, and considering their effects on the behaviour
of drilled shafts. A valuable tool for practitioners in geological
engineering, rock mechanics and foundation engineering.
