In Situ Testing Methods in Geotechnical Engineering (Paperback): Alan J. Lutenegger In Situ Testing Methods in Geotechnical Engineering (Paperback)
Alan J. Lutenegger
R1,725 Discovery Miles 17 250 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

In Situ Testing Methods in Geotechnical Engineering covers the field of applied geotechnical engineering related to the use of in situ testing of soils to determine soil properties and parameters for geotechnical design. It provides an overview of the practical aspects of the most routine and common test methods, as well as test methods that engineers may wish to include on specific projects. It is suited for a graduate-level course on field testing of soils and will also aid practicing engineers. Test procedures for determining in situ lateral stress, strength, and stiffness properties of soils are examined, as is the determination of stress history and rate of consolidation. Readers will be introduced to various approaches to geotechnical design of shallow and deep foundations using in situ tests. Importantly, the text discusses the potential advantages and disadvantages of using in situ tests.

Laboratory Manual for Geotechnical Characterization of Fine-Grained Soils (Hardcover): Alan J. Lutenegger Laboratory Manual for Geotechnical Characterization of Fine-Grained Soils (Hardcover)
Alan J. Lutenegger
R2,701 Discovery Miles 27 010 Ships in 9 - 17 working days

This manual presents procedures for performing advanced laboratory tests on fine-grained soils. It covers characterization tests, which determine soil composition and quantify the individual components of a soil, and behavioral tests, such as the Atterberg Limits tests that demonstrate how the fines fraction of a soil reacts when mixed with water and the Linear Shrinkage Test that demonstrates how much a soil shrinks. The material goes beyond traditional evaluation of basic soil behavior by presenting more advanced laboratory tests to characterize soil in more detail. These tests provide detailed compositional characteristics which identify subtle changes in conditions and vertical variations in the soil, and which help to explain unusual behavior. A unique compilation of information on key soil tests Combines characterization tests with behavior tests The book suits graduate students in geotechnical engineering, as well as practitioners and researchers.

Soils and Geotechnology in Construction (Paperback): Alan J. Lutenegger Soils and Geotechnology in Construction (Paperback)
Alan J. Lutenegger
R3,592 Discovery Miles 35 920 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

This book covers the field of applied geotechnology related to all aspects of construction in ground, including compacted fill, excavations, ground improvement, foundations, earth retaining systems and geotechnical site characterization. It suits the first year of a graduate course on ground improvement and geoconstruction and will suit practicing engineers, both consultants and contractors. Distinctively it covers the identification of problematic soils and appropriate mitigation measures, and the inspection of ground construction work. It combines the technical and the practical in applied geotechnology.
