Foundation Engineering Handbook by Manjriker Gunaratne, 902 Pages
- A genuine need existed for an updated foundation engineering handbook that incorporates, in addition to classical principles of foundation designs, significant contributions made to the art of foundation design by practitioners and researchers during the last two decades. Of special significance in this regard is the knowledge of (1) innovative in situ testing and site improvement techniques that have evolved recently; (2) cost-effective design methods that make use of geogrids for mechanically stabilized earth retaining structures; (3) concepts involved in ground deformation modeling using finite elements; and (4) latest modifications in the ACI codes applicable to structural design of foundations. This handbook largely fulfills the above needs, since the editor and the contributors have focused on discussing the state of the art of theoretical and applied foundation engineering and concrete design in a concise and simple fashion.
- Great strides have been made in the art of foundation design during the last two decades. In situ testing, site improvement techniques, the use of geogrids in the design of retaining walls, modified ACI codes, and ground deformation modeling using finite elements are but a few of the developments that have significantly advanced foundation engineering in recent years. What has been lacking, however, is a comprehensive reference for foundation engineers that incorporates these state-of-the-art concepts and techniques.
- The Foundation Engineering Handbook fills that void. It presents both classical and state-of-the-art design and analysis techniques for earthen structures, and covers basic soil mechanics and soil and groundwater modeling concepts along with the latest research results. It addresses isolated and shallow footings, retaining structures, and modern methods of pile construction monitoring, as well as stability analysis and ground improvement methods. The handbook also covers reliability-based design and LRFD (Load Resistance Factor Design)-concepts not addressed in most foundation engineering texts.
- Easy-to-follow numerical design examples illustrate each technique. Along with its unique, comprehensive coverage, the clear, concise discussions and logical organization of The Foundation Engineering Handbook make it the one quick reference every practitioner and student in the field needs.
