Foundation Engineering is the second book in the series on
Geotechnical Engineering published in 2014 to meet the requirements
of undergraduate students. This book covers various aspects of
foundation engineering bringing together all the relevant theories.
The concepts have been developed systematically. The aim of the
book is to present the basic of various topics in an easy way. It
serves as a guide for practicing engineers also. Salient Features:
Provides large number of illustrative examples and solution
Contains enough practice exercise and descriptive questions Gives
proper references to the relevant Indian standard codes at
appropriate places
The book exhaustively deals with the fundamental principles of soil
mechanics. New concepts such as the Critical-State Concept,
Three-Dimensional Consolidition and Stress Path Method are
discussed. It will serve the needs of students of civil
engineering. Concepts are developed systematically. A large number
of graded numerical examples and solutions are included. The book
broadly deals with: Basic terminology and interrelations. Index
properties of soils. Soil classification systems. Soil water and
effective stress. Permeability. Seepage analysis. Stress
distribution in soil mass. Compaction. Consolidation. Shear
strength of soils. Lateral earth pressure and earth retaining
structures. Stability of slopes.
