Product Description:
The environmental effect on the behavior of the soil-water system is difficult to explain using classical mechanical concepts alone. This book integrates and blends traditional theory with particle-energy-field theory in order to provide a framework for the analysis of soil behavior under varied environmental conditions.
A complete treatment of geotechnical engineering concepts is given, with an emphasis on environmental factors. Soil properties and classifications are included, as well as issues relating to contaminated land. Both SI and Imperial units are used, and an accompanying website provides example problems and solutions.
Introductory Geotechnical Engineering: An Environmental Perspective explains the "why" and "how" of geotechnical engineering in an environmental context. Students of civil, geotechnical and environmental engineering, and practitioners unfamiliar with the particle-energy-field concept, will find the book's novel approach helps to clarify the complex theory behind geotechnics.
