Geotechnical Engineering

[Flexi]

Purpose and Scope of the Book
'GEOTECHNICAL ENGINEERING'
There are not many books which cover both soil mechanics and foundation engineering which a student can use for his paper on Geotechnical Engineering. This paper is studied compulsorily and available books, whatever few are there, have not been found satisfactory. Students are compelled to refer to three or four books to meet their requirements. The author has been prompted by the lack of a good comprehensive textbook to write this present work. He has made a sincere effort to sum up his experience of thirty three years of teaching in the present book. The notable features of the book are as follows:

1. The S.1. (Standard International) System of Units, which is a modification of the Metric System of units, is adopted. A note on the S.l. Units is included by way of elucidation. The reader is requested to refer to the latest revised versions of the 1.8. codes mentioned in the book.
2. Reference is made to the relevant Indian Standards, wherever applicable.
3. The number of illustrative problems as well as the number of practice problems:is made as large as possible so as to cover the various types of problems likely to be encountered. The problems are carefully graded with regard to their toughness,
4. A few "objective questions" are also included.
5. "Summary of Main Points" is given at the end of each Chapter.
6. References are given at the end of each Chapter.
7. Symbols and nomenclature adopted are mostly consistent, while being in close agreement with the internationally standardised. ones.
8. The sequence of topics and subtopics is made as logical as possible.
9. The author does not pretend to claim any originality for the material, the sources being appropriately acknowledged; however, he does claim some degree of it in the presentation, in the degree of lucidity sought to be imparted, and in his efforts to combine the good features of previous works in this field, In view of the meager number of books in this field in S.I. Units, this can be expected to be a valuable contribution to the existing literature.
