Experimental Soil Mechanics


Overview

This text centres on basic experimental techniques for the determination of soil properties. It contains more than 20 hands-on laboratory experiments, providing theory, equipment, experimental procedures, data processing, review questions and exercises. Focusing on the experimental techniques of soil mechanics and the basic principles underlying the techniques, this book looks at developments in experimental techniques as well as standard testing procedures. It modernizes the processing of experimental data with spreadsheets on personal computers, including a floppy disk (Microsoft Excel for Windows and MAC platforms) with examples of processed experimental data sets.
