Summary: | "This textbook shows students how soil mechanics concepts can be applied to solving real-world problems in geotechnical and foundation engineering. Soil mechanics describes the behavior of soils, which consist of a mixture of fluids (usually air and water) and particles (usually clay, silt, sand, and gravel). Foundation engineering is the application of soil mechanics and rock mechanics-together known as geotechnical engineering-to the design of structure foundations"-- |
