Geotechnical Earthquake Engineering - Simplified Analyses with Case Studies and ExamplesMilutin Srbulov (Author)
This volume describes simplified dynamic analyses that bridge the gap between the rather limited provisions of design codes and the rather eclectic methods used in sophisticated analyses. Graphs and spreadsheets are included for the ease and speed of use of simplified analyses of:
• soil slope (in)stability and displacements caused by earthquakes,
• sand liquefaction and flow caused by earthquakes,
• dynamic soil-foundation interaction,
• bearing capacity and additional settlement of shallow foundations,
• earthquake motion effects on tunnels and shafts,
• frequent liquefaction potential mitigation measures.
A number of comments on the assumptions used in different methods, limitation and factors affecting the results are given. Several case histories are also included in the appendices in order to assess the accuracy and usefulness of the simplified methods.
Audience
This work is of interest to geotechnical engineers, engineering geologists, earthquake engineers and students.

Foundation Design Principles and Practices - by Donald P.Coduto
Synopsis:
Using a design-oriented approach that addresses geotechnical, structural, and construction aspects of foundation engineering, this book explores practical methods of designing structural foundations, while emphasizing and explaining how and why foundations behave the way they do. It explains the theories and experimental data behind the design procedures, and how to apply this information to real-world problems. Covers general principles (performance requirements, soil mechanics, site exploration and characterization); shallow foundations (bearing capacity, settlement, spread footings -- geotechnical design, spread footings -- structural design, mats); deep foundations (axial load capacity -- full-scale load tests, static methods, dynamic methods; lateral load capacity; structural design); special topics (foundations on weak and compressible soils, foundation on expansive soils, foundations on collapsible soils); and earth retaining structures (lateral earth pressures, cantilever retaining walls, sheet pile walls, soldier pile walls, internally stabilized earth retaining structures). For geotechnical engineers, soils engineers, structural engineers, and foundation engineers.

Craig's Soil Mechanics, 7th Edition, R.F. Craig quot
Published by Taylor Francis | Publication date : April 2004 | ISBN : 0415327024 | File type: PDF | 459 pages | English | 10.2 mb
This is the seventh edition of the best selling text Soil Mechanics, widely praised for its clarity, depth of explanation and extensive coverage. As with previous editions, it presents the fundamental principles of soil mechanics and illustrates how they are applied in practical situations. Worked examples throughout the book reinforce the explanations and a range of problems for the reader to solve provides further learning opportunities.
Soil Mechanics assembles all the essential elements of an undergraduate course, leading from the properties of soils and basic theory through to practical applications such as retaining structures and foundations. Both the traditional and limit state methods of design are included, some of the concepts of geotechnical engineering are introduced and the different types of field instrumentation are described. Case studies provide the essential features of 10 geotechnical projects and the differences between prediction and performance are illustrated and discussed.

Soil Mechanics - Basic Concept and Engineering Applications, A. Aysen (Author)
ISBN-10: 0415383935 | ISBN-13: 978-0415383936 | Publication Date: January 3, 2002 | Edition: 1
Book DescriptionAa logical, integrated and comprehensive coverage of both introductory and advanced topics in soil mechanics in an easy-to-understand style. Emphasis is placed on presenting fundamental behaviour before more advanced topics are introduced. The use of S.I. units throughout, and frequent references to current international codes of practice and refereed research papers, make the contents universally applicable.
Written with the university student in mind and packed full of pedagogical features, this book provides an integrated and comprehensive coverage of both introductory and advanced topics in soil mechanics. It includes:
• worked examples to elucidate the technical content and facilitate self-learning
• a convenient structure (the book is divided into sections), enabling it to be used throughout two, three and four year undergraduate courses
• univerally applicable contents through the use of SI units throughout, frequent references to current international codes of practice and refereed research papers
• new and advanced topics that extend beyond those in standard undergraduate courses.
The perfect textbook for a range of courses on soils mechanics and also a very valuable resource for practising professional engineers.
