Handbook of Geotechnical Investigation and Design Tables

Burt G. Look:
Connell Wagner Pty Ltd., Brisbane, Australia

Providing easy access to key information, this practical handbook of
properties for soils and rock presents key issues concerning geotechnical
investigations, assessments and designs in a concise tabular format. The
book is bridge between soil and rock mechanics theory and its application
to practical engineering solutions. The initial chapters deal with the
planning of the geotechnical investigation, the classification of the soil and
rock properties and the tests commonly carried out. Later chapters
demonstrate the reliability and correlations used to convert data in the
interpretative and assessment phase of the project. The final chapters
apply some of these concepts to geotechnical design.
