This book gathers state-of-the-art knowledge from experts who worked extensively in foundation engineering in tropical residual soils. They cover geology and formation of residual soils; site investigations; characterization and selection of parameters for foundation design; design of shallow and deep foundations including driven piles, drilled shafts and caissons; and special topics such as design of piles in marginally stable river banks, micro piles, Augeo pile, pile load and NDT, foundation failures and remedial works, and pile-supported embankment. The book also includes a country case...

Devoted entirely to tropical areas, this work on soil engineering and mechanics looks at the origin, testing and properties of tropical residual soil types.
