This book covers fundamental concepts of soil mechanics and foundation engineering. It allows readers to understand the nature of soil, how it behaves, why it behaves that way, and the engineering significance of such behavior and its application to foundation design. It also includes example problems/solutions and numerous examples. Concise, yet thorough, the text is organized incrementally, with earlier sections serving as the foundation for more advanced topics. This book adds new chapters on site exploration, shallow and deep foundation design, and slope stability.
