This volume on "Advances in Analysis and Design of Deep Foundations" contains 22 technical papers which cover various aspects of analysis and design of deep foundations based on full-scale field testing, numerical modeling, and analytical solutions. The technical papers are 8-10 pages long that present the results and findings from research as well as practical-oriented studies on deep foundations that are of interest to civil/geotechnical engineering community. The topics cover a wide spectrum of applications that include evaluation of the axial and lateral capacity of piles, pile group effects, evaluation of the increase in pile capacity with time (or pile setup), influence of excavation on pile capacity, study the behavior of pile raft caisson foundations, evaluate the bearing capacity and settlement of piles from cone penetration tests, etc. This volume is part of the proceedings of the 1st GeoMEast International Congress and Exhibition on Sustainable Civil Infrastructures, Egypt 2017.

The proceedings contain 30 papers covering a wide range of research areas that discuss the importance of water in semi-arid regions, with an emphasis on dam engineering. This information is vital for reliable, efficient, and economic construction and maintenance of geo-structures. Geotechnical engineers who specialize in dam, highway materials, and soil improvement will benefit from this book. The Geo Jordan 2004 Conference was held in Irbid, Jordan, on July 12-15, 2004. Topics include: improvement of soil properties using geosynthetics and chemical stabilization; use of TDR and other geophysical methods to detect pollutants in soils and to assess properties of embankments; modelling the constitutive behavior of soils and fluid flow through granular materials; case histories of design filters for dams; Monitoring and rehabilitation of dams; and embankments and geo-structures.
