Principle of Geotechnical Engineering



Geotechnical Engineering: Principles and Practices with CDROM by Donald P. Coduto,

Geotechnical Engineering: Principles and Practices with CDROM by Donald P. Coduto,
Rigorous and technically deep -- yet accessible -- this up-to-date introduction to geotechnical engineering explores both the principles of soil mechanics "and" their application to engineering practice -- emphasizing the role of geotechnical engineering in real design projects. An accompanying CD provides supplementary software developed specifically for learning purposes -- e.g., SETTRATE. Discusses site exploration and characterization; soil composition; soil classification; excavation, grading, and compacted fill; groundwater -- fundamentals and applications; stress; compressibility and settlement; rate of consolidation; strength; stability of earth slope; dams and levees; lateral earth pressures and retaining walls; structural foundations; difficult soils; soil improvement; and geotechnical earthquake engineering. Makes extensive use of photographs and example problems. For geotechnical engineers, soils engineers, ground engineers, structural engineers, and civil engineers.



Foundation Design: Principles and Practices by Donald P. Coduto,
Foundation Design: Principles and Practices by Donald P. Coduto,
Using a design-oriented approach that addresses geotechnical, structural, and construction aspects of foundation engineering, this book explores practical methods of designing structural foundations, while emphasizing and explaining how and why foundations behave the way they do. It explains the theories and experimental data behind the design procedures, and how to apply this information to real-world problems. Covers general principles (performance requirements, soil mechanics, site exploration and characterization); shallow foundations (bearing capacity, settlement, spread footings -- geotechnical design, spread footings -- structural design, mats); deep foundations (axial load capacity -- full-scale load tests, static methods, dynamic methods; lateral load capacity; structural design); special topics (foundations on weak and compressible soils, foundation on expansive soils, foundations on collapsible soils); and earth retaining structures (lateral earth pressures, cantilever retaining walls, sheet pile walls, soldier pile walls, internally stabilized earth retaining structures). For geotechnical engineers, soils engineers, structural engineers, and foundation engineers.



Geotechnical engineering - Geotechnical engineering is concerned with the engineering properties of earth materials. Geotechnical engineers investigate the soil and bedrock below a site to confirm their engineering properties as they will relate to the proposed costruction.

Earthworks (engineering) - In civil engineering, earthworks are engineering works created through the moving of massive quantities of soil or unformed stone. Engineers need to concern themselves with both issues of geotechnical engineering (such as soil fluidity and friction), and with quantity estimation - to ensure that soil volumes in the cuts match those of the fills, while minimising the distance of movement.

Hollywood Principle - The Hollywood Principle is stated as "don't call us, we'll call you." It has applications in software engineering.

Robustness Principle - The Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) has a numbered series of Requests for Comments (RFCs) that define the protocols that make up the Internet. In the RFC that defines the Transmission Control Protocol, RFC 793, Jon Postel defined the Robustness Principle (also known as Postel's Law).
