• Sommario/riassunto: Geotechnical Engineering: A Practical Problem SolvingApproach covers all of the major geotechnical topics inthe simplest possible way adopting a hands-on approachwith a very strong practical bias. You will learn thematerial through worked examples that are representativeof realistic field situations whereby geotechnicalengineering principles are applied to solve real-lifeproblems. There are a few carefully selected reviewexercises at the end of each chapter with answers givenwhenever possible. Also included are closed-book quizzesthat should be completed within the specified times andwill make you think and point you to what you havemissed.
