About This Book
The Geotechnical Engineering Investigation Handbook provides the tools necessary for fusing geological characterization and investigation with critical analysis for obtaining engineering design criteria. The second edition updates this pioneering reference for the 21 st century, including developments that have occurred in the twen

Properties
of
some
materials
are
best
measured
in
the
laboratory,
while
others
must
be
field-tested.
In
some
cases,
properties
cannot
be
adequately
defined
by
direct
testing
and
the
result
will
be
designs
that
are
conservative
and
too
costly,
unconservative
and
risky,
or
unconservative

plans.
To
monitor
ground

during
construction,
field
instrumentation
is
an
important
element
of
many
studies,
where
sub-
surface
conditions
cannot
be
adequately
defined
by
exploration
and

Instrumentation
is
used
also
to
obtain

to

such
as

and
