Providing easy access to key information, this practical handbook of properties for soils and rock presents key issues concerning geotechnical investigations, assessments and designs in a concise tabular format. The book is bridge between soil and rock mechanics theory and its application to practical engineering solutions. The initial chapters deal with the planning of the geotechnical investigation, the classification of the soil and rock properties and the tests commonly carried out. Later chapters demonstrate the reliability and correlations used to convert data in the interpretative and assessment phase of the project. The final chapters apply some of these concepts to geotechnical design.

ISBN 13: 978-0-203-94660-2 (e-book)

This is intended to be a reference manual for Geotechnical Engineers. It is principally a
data book for the practicing Geotechnical Engineer and Engineering Geologist, which
covers:
• The planning of the site investigation.
• The classification of soil and rock.
• Common testing, and the associated variability.
• The strength and deformation properties associated with the test results.
• The engineering assessment of these geotechnical parameters for both soil and
rock.
• The application in geotechnical design for:
– Terrain assessment and slopes
– Earthworks and its specifications
– Subgrades and pavements
– Drainage and erosion
– Geotextiles
– Retention systems
– Soil and rock foundations
– Tunnels
– Movements

Handbook of Geotechnical Investigation and Design Table, 2nd Edition

Author: Burt G. Look | Size: 31 MB | Format: PDF | Quality: Unspecified | Publisher: CRC Press | Year: 2014 | Pages: 398 | ISBN: 138001392, 9781138001398

This practical handbook of properties for soils and rock contains in a concise tabular format the key issues relevant to geotechnical investigations, assessments and designs in common practice. There are brief notes on the application of the tables. These data tables are compiled for experienced geotechnical professionals who require a reference document to access key information. There is an extensive database of correlations for different applications. The book should provide a useful bridge between soil and rock mechanics theory and its application to practical engineering solutions.

The initial chapters deal with the planning of the geotechnical investigation, the classification of the soil and rock properties and some of the more used testing is then covered. Later chapters show the reliability and correlations that are used to convert that data in the interpretative and assessment phase of the project. The final chapters apply some of these concepts to geotechnical design. The emphasis throughout is on application to practice.

This book is intended primarily for practicing geotechnical engineers working in investigation, assessment and design, but should provide a useful supplement for postgraduate courses. It evolved from the need to have a "go to" reference book which has both breadth and depth of information to apply immediately to projects. This was not possible, and to keep to a handbook size one has to compromise details to a few key dot points – but a comprehensive reference list provides the "appendix" for additional information if required. This 2nd edition keeps to that format but with updated information and adjustment from feedback since first published.
