Cernica, John N.,
Geotechnical engineering. Foundation design / Foundation design Professor John N. Cernica, P.E., Ph.D. - xv, 486 pages : illustrations ; 26 cm
Includes bibliographical references and index.
Geotechnical Problems in Civil Engineering -- Geotechnical Properties of Soils -- Subsurface Exploration -- Bearing Capacity - Shallow Foundations -- Site Improvement -- Spread-Footing Design -- Special Foundations -- Lateral Earth Pressure -- Retaining Walls -- Sheet-Pile Walls; Braced Cuts -- Deep Foundations: Piles, Drilled Piers, and Caissons -- K[subscript a] and K[subscript p] Coefficients: Rankine and Coulomb Equations -- Solution to Terzaghi's Consolidation Equation -- Boussinesq's Equation for Radial Stress. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. Appendix A. Appendix B. Appendix C.
"Combines a thorough theoretical presentation with the practical aspects of foundation design. The first three chapters offer a condensed version of the basic elements of soil mechanics. The remaining chapters deal with the design of diverse types of foundation components, retaining rock structures and site improvement."--Publisher's website.
