Duncan - Buchignani - An Engineering Manual for Settlement Studies
Author(s)/Editor(s): J. M. Duncan - A. L. Buchignani | Size: 13.75 MB | Format:PDF | Quality:Scanner | Publisher: University of Berkeley | Year: 1976 | pages: 97
The purpose of this manual is to provide a simple, practical guide far settlement studies.
It is concerned with (1) settlement problems and building damage due to settlement, (2) methods of estimating settlements of shallow foundations on sand, (3) methods of estimating immediate, consolidation, and secondary compression settlements of shallow foundations on clay, (4) methods of estimating settlements of pile foundations, and (5) methods of eliminating, reducing, or coping with settlements.

Correlation between drained shear strength and plasticity index of undisturbed overconsolidated clays

Abstract: A number of triaxial compression tests have been performed by The Danish Geotechnical Institute over the past decades on undisturbed overconsolidated Danish clays; ranging from clay till of low plasticity to extremely high plasticity marine Tertiary clays.
The test results confirm that the drained peak angle of shearing resistance can be related to the plasticity index, though a large scatter is generally seen.
Based on the results and a review of published data a conservative relationship between drained peak angle of shearing resistance and plasticity index for undisturbed overconsolidated clays is proposed.
The proposed relationship and the interrelation to the effective cohesion are discussed.

Combines a thorough theoretical presentation with the practical aspects of foundation design. The first three chapters offer a condensed version of the basic elements of soil mechanics. The remaining chapters deal with the design of diverse types of foundation components, retaining rock structures and site improvement.

"The third revised edition offers exhaustive information regarding
concepts, processes and fundamental principles of forest hydrology.
This publication discusses functional properties, distributions of
water, forests and precipitation, humidity, runoff, soils and
sedimentation and also research approaches in the forest and water. In
addition, the watershed management and practical applications in forest
hydrology and water recourse managements are also discussed in this
book."
―Nachrichten, Neue Publikationen,2013
Praise for the First Edition
A textbook for most forest hydrology courses should not only cover topics on forest impacts on water but also provide the basics of water properties, movement, and storage in the atmosphere, soil matrix, and surface water bodies. Putting both major topic areas in one manageable textbook requires trade-offs that do not dilute either subject area too much, but rather skillfully blend the two together. Mingteh Chang has done just that in writing this book.
―Richard C. Schultz, Professor of Forest Hydrology and Ecology, Iowa State University, in Forest Science, Vol. 49, No. 2
The book can be used as a text for students in agriculture, forestry, and land-resources management, and as a reference for foresters, rangers, geographers, watershed managers, biologists, agriculturalists, environmentalists, policy makers, engineers, and others who may need such background in their professions.
―Falhry A. Assaad, Consultant, Geologist, and Data Analyst
