Publisher's Note
Completely updated and expanded, it takes into account the changes and additions to BS 1377 plus references to NAMAS requirements for tests and calibration, as well as extensive coverage of the latest ASTM Standards. A working manual for all those involved in geotechnical laboratory testing, volume one discusses basic tests for soil classification and compaction. Every test is broken down into simple stages and described step-by-step. More complex procedures are illustrated by flow diagrams and many numerical examples are given to demonstrate the methods of calculation. Volume Two covers standard laboratory tests for the measurement of soil permeability, CBR values, shear strength, and consolidation characteristics. The Third Volume contains material on effective stress triaxial tests of various kinds.

NOTE:
These books are avaible from many Editorial Companies (like ELE, Wiley, Whittles, etc). Any edition is welcome !
