This volume on geotechnics and soft soil engineering therefore treats all phases of the design and construction process exhaustively, from the first investigation step to the monitoring of constructed work. The book presents the development concepts necessary for the project stages and discusses in great detail construction methods, displacement estimations, stability analyses, monitoring, and various other aspects involved. Extensive attention is furthermore paid to the application of geosynthetics as a to 606 $aSoil stabilization 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aSoil stabilization. 676 $a624.15136 700 $aAlmeida$b Marcio$g(Marcio S.
