Analysis and Design of Foundations and Retaining Structures Subjected to Seismic Loads - Hardcover

Inhaltsangabe

This book offers a systematic treatment of the analysis and design of foundations and retaining structures subjected to dynamic loads. Written for graduate students and practicing geotechnical engineers, the book is designed to help the reader understand the fundamental principles and procedures of analysing and designing geotechnical structures subjected to dynamic loads.

Topics covered include: dynamic soil properties and liquefaction; dynamic earth pressures in shallow, pile and well foundations; rigid and water front retaining structures, bridge abutments; reinforced earth, and nailed walls.

Solved examples are included in each chapter. All formulae, charts and examples are given in SI units. Both analysis and design methodology are based on the latest state-of-the-art and IS codes.
