Summary:
"Applied Analyses in Geotechnics makes the transition between
theoretical analyses and applied design methods. As well as the
classical subjects on soil mechanics, the book presents a highly
stimulating analysis of special topics, highlighting in the process
the applied side through the use of detailed worked examples."--BOOK
JACKET.
