Problematic Soils: Proceedings of the Symposium Held at the Nottingham - Hardcover

Inhaltsangabe

Problematic soils have been, and continue to be, a major geohazard to the built environment, with billions of pounds spent the world over preventing and remediating damage suffered as a result of their behaviour. This volume brings together a collection of papers that highlight the behaviour and characteristics of problematic soils (particularly those found in the UK), and offers guidance on possible treatment techniques that could be applied for their successful engineering. The proceedings comprises three sections. The first section deals with naturally occurring problematic soils. The second section deals with man-made/altered problematic soils, an area that is becoming increasingly important. The final section deals with the engineering treatment of problematic soils.
