Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Systematic treatment of difficult ground as a separate paper in undergraduate and postgraduate courses is gaining ground in Indian universities. Earlier, these topics were taught under a variety of subjects like Advanced Geotechnical Engineering, Retaining Structures, Dams, Pavement Designs, Application of Geosynthetics, Application of Soil Mechanics, and so on. However, field requirement and advances in the technology make a strong case for a focused treatment of the subject which this book provides. A full-fledged paper in ground improvement techniques concentrates on the topics of soil stabilization, compaction, preloading, vertical drains, geosynthetics, in-situ reinforcements and modelling of soil reinforcement. The book provides an overview of the basic concepts of ground modifications to difficult soils in a logical and illustrative way. It teaches how to apply alternative solutions to difficult foundation problems and evaluate their effectiveness before and after construction. The text is supported by a large number of examples, review and multiple choice questions, as well as practical problems. The book is intended to serve as a textbook for undergraduate and postgraduate students of Geotechnical, Transportation, Hydraulic and Environmental Engineering, and a reference work for practising civil engineers. Salient features 1. A well researched textbook on ground improvement techniques 2. Conforms to the syllabi of all Indian universities where the subject is taught 3. Written by an expert on the subject with a decade of teaching experience

Download or read book Ground Improvement By Deep Vibratory Methods written by Klaus Kirsch and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2010-07-02 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vibro-compaction and vibro-stone columns are the two dynamic methods of soil improvement most commonly used worldwide. These methods have been developed over seventy years and are now in a position of unrivalled importance amongst modern foundation measures. The first works on granular soil by densification, and the second is used to displace and reinforce fine grained and cohesive soils by introducing inert material. This practical guide for professional geotechnical engineers outlines the development of vibratory deep compaction, describes the equipment used, sets out the methods and techniques and provides state of the art design principles and quality control procedures. It also identifies the practical limitations of the methods. Case studies from South East Asia and the Middle East are used to illustrate the methods and to demonstrate how they apply in real world conditions. The book concludes with some variations of the basic methods, evaluates the economic and environmental benefits of the methods and gives contractual guidance.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Due to the unavailability of good construction sites owing to the growth of cities and industries, the site engineers are nowadays compelled to adopt methods of forcing the weak soil to behave according to the project requirement. Written in the same context, the book focuses on the fundamental principles and practical methods of ground improvement. The design and constructional procedure of different ground improvement methods are comprehensively covered in the text. The subject-matter, divided into fourteen chapters, is organised into a simplified and logical manner to describe first the working methods and then the possible future developments. The book enables its readers to become aware of the overall methodology to be adopted in a particular case and seek possible solution to the chosen field. It is primarily intended to cater the needs of undergraduate and postgraduate students of civil engineering and geotechnical engineering. KEY FEATURES • Numerous figures, tables and mathematical equations are provided to support the topics discussed. • Several worked-out examples are provided in most of the chapters. • Objective questions, descriptive questions and references are given at the end of each chapter. • Numerical questions are given for practice in the relevant chapters. • An appendix introduces miscellaneous topics related to soil.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gain a stronger foundation with optimal ground improvement Before you break ground on a new structure, you need to analyze the structure of the ground. Expert analysis and optimization of the geo-materials on your site can mean the difference between a lasting structure and a school in a sinkhole. Sometimes problematic geology is expected because of the location, but other times it's only unearthed once construction has begun. You need to be able to quickly adapt your project plan to include an improvement to unfavorable ground before the project can safely continue. Principles and Practice of Ground Improvement is the only comprehensive, up-to-date compendium of solutions to this critical aspect of civil engineering. Dr. Jie Han, registered Professional Engineer and preeminent voice in geotechnical engineering, is the ultimate guide to the methods and best practices of ground improvement. Han walks you through various ground improvement solutions and provides theoretical and practical advice for determining which technique fits each situation. Follow examples to find solutions to complex problems Complete homework problems to tackle issues that present themselves in the field Study design procedures for each technique to simplify field implementation Brush up on modern ground improvement technologies to keep abreast of all available options Principles and Practice of Ground Improvement can be used as a textbook, and includes Powerpoint slides for instructors. It's also a handy field reference for contractors and installers who actually implement plans. There are many ground improvement solutions out there, but there is no single right answer to every situation. Principles and Practice of Ground Improvement will give you the information you need to analyze the problem, then design and implement the best possible solution.
