Geotechnical Investigations and Improvement of Ground Conditions (eBook, ePUB)

Beschreibung

Geotechnical Investigation and Improvement of Ground Conditions covers practical information on ground improvement and site investigation, considering rock properties and engineering geology and its relation to construction. The book covers geotechnical investigation for construction projects, including classic case studies with geotechnical significance. Additional sections cover soil compaction, soil stabilization, drainage and dewatering, grouting methods, the stone column method, geotextiles, fabrics and earth reinforcement, miscellaneous methods and tools for ground improvement, geotechnical investigation for construction projects, and forensic geotechnical engineering. Final sections present a series of site-specific case studies. - Dedicated to ground improvement techniques and geotechnical site investigation - Provides practical guidance on site-specific geotechnical investigation and the subsequent interpretation of data - Presents site-specific case studies with geotechnical significance - Includes site investigation of soils and rocks - Gives field-oriented information and guidance

Autor

The Author is currently working as an Associate Professor in Visvesvaraya National Institute of Technology, Nagpur which is recognized as an institute of National Importance by the Govt of India. He has completed his PhD in Geotechnical Engineering from the Indian Institute of Technology, Bombay in 2009 and he has over 13 years of experience in teaching, research and consultancy. He was involved as a geotechnical engineer during the subsurface exploration for the expansion of SSR International Airport in Mauritius. This investigation was one of the special cases in geotechnical engineering which includes the exploration of volcanic voids and subsurface cavities. Further, he has gained sufficient experience in geotechnical investigations because of his involvement in various consultancy jobs as well as research projects. Recently in 2019, Dr. Patel has authored a book entitled "Geotechnical Investigations and Improvement of Ground Condition, published by Elsevier in 2019. The author has guided 04 PhD and 22 MTech students, and currently some more students are working for their Master's and PhD degree under his supervision. He has got 3 patents and has about 50 technical papers published in different journals of national and international repute.
