This book covers the field of applied geotechnology related to all aspects of construction in ground, including compacted fill, excavations, ground improvement, foundations, earth retaining systems and geotechnical site characterization. It suits the first year of a graduate course on ground improvement and geoconstruction and will suit practicing engineers, both consultants and contractors.

Distinctively it covers the identification of problematic soils and appropriate mitigation measures, and the inspection of ground construction work. It combines the technical and the...

Proceedings of a Specialty Conference on Performance Confirmation of Constructed Geotechnical Facilities, held in Amherst, Massachusetts, April 9-12, 2000. Sponsored by the Geo-Institute of ASCE.

This Geotechnical Special Publication contains 37 papers reporting on the performance confirmation of constructed geotechnical facilities. Geotechnical engineers can access both short-term and long-term performance feedback that is necessary to validate design approaches, reinterpret property assessment, and improve the design process.

Topics include:

• performance and...
