Book synopsis

This collection contains contributions from leading researchers on the engineering behaviour of unsaturated soil. It includes contributions dealing with the measurement of suction, discussions about how pore-water affects the engineering behaviour of soils and the important role played by soil-water characteristic (water retention) curves. This leads on to applications of unsaturated soil behaviour within geotechnical engineering practice, dealing with collapsible soils, foundations, and slopes. §The collection is valuable both in contributing to the research effort on unsaturated soil behaviour and also in showing how unsaturated soil concepts can be applied within geotechnical engineering practice. It shows how researchers are making significant headway in establishing rational approaches to dealing with these complex circumstances.§Audience: This book will be of interest to both researchers and practitioners dealing with unsaturated soil behaviour.
