Geotechnical Engineering: Principles and Practices offers students
and practicing engineers a concise, easy-to-understand approach to
the principles and methods of soil and geotechnical engineering. This
updated classic builds from basic principles of soil mechanics and
applies them to new topics, including mechanically stabilized earth
(MSE), and intermediate foundations.
