Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Earthquakes do not affect every site in the same way. Their consequences depend on the ground beneath a structure, the movement that reaches the site, groundwater conditions, and the way soil, foundations, slopes, and infrastructure respond. Understanding these connections is the foundation of sound geotechnical earthquake engineering.This comprehensive handbook guides readers from seismic hazard and ground motion to practical design and field decisions. It connects fundamental theory with site investigation, analysis, mitigation, monitoring, and resilient infrastructure practice.Readers Will Learn How To: - Interpret seismic hazard, earthquake ground motion, and wave propagation.- Evaluate dynamic soil and rock properties.- Plan site investigations and interpret field and laboratory evidence.- Analyse site response, liquefaction, cyclic mobility, and ground failure.- Assess slopes, retaining systems, foundations, piles, and soil-structure interaction.- Select ground-improvement methods and evaluate seismic mitigation strategies.- Model embankments, earth structures, and infrastructure under earthquake loading.- Apply numerical modelling, performance-based assessment, risk, resilience, and monitoring.Clear explanations, core equations, worked examples, analytical tools, and decision frameworks demonstrate how to select appropriate methods and understand their limitations.The book addresses the uncertainties that often control real-world performance, including spatial variability, groundwater conditions, pore-pressure generation, strength degradation, incomplete data, construction conditions, and the difference between calculated predictions and observed field behaviour.It is especially useful for readers who need to move beyond formula selection and make defensible engineering decisions when evidence is incomplete, ground conditions vary across a site, and safety, constructability, performance, and recovery must be considered together throughout the engineering process.Designed for students, researchers, consultants, geotechnical engineers, earthquake engineers, and advanced practitioners, this handbook provides a practical path from first principles to responsible seismic design.Its Canadian framing, SI units, and emphasis on resilient infrastructure make it a useful companion for graduate study, professional development, and real-world engineering projects.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The soil under a project is the one material a civil engineer never gets to specify.Steel arrives with a mill certificate and concrete with a mix design. The ground is whatever geology left behind: variable, sampled at a handful of points, and unforgiving of assumptions. So the work comes down to a familiar moment. A boring log lands on your desk, loose sand over soft clay with the water table near the surface, and you have to decide what it means and what to do about it.This handbook is written for that decision. Sixteen chapters move in the order the work actually happens, from how a deposit formed, through the tests that measure it, to the foundation, retaining structure, slope, or ground treatment those measurements support. Each method arrives with its assumptions, its supporting test, and a clear statement of where it stops being reliable.What this handbook helps you do- Classify soils from index tests and read what the result implies about strength, compressibility, drainage, and volume change- Control compaction and earthwork in the field, and diagnose the density and moisture problems that stall projects- Build stress profiles, analyze seepage with flow nets, and evaluate piping, uplift, and dewatering- Estimate settlement and its rate, and select drained and undrained strength parameters with sample disturbance in mind- Plan a subsurface investigation, interpret penetration testing, and produce boring logs and profiles a designer can use- Design shallow foundations, piles, and drilled shafts for bearing capacity, settlement, group action, and uplift- Analyze retaining structures, braced excavations, and slopes, and screen a site for liquefaction and seismic ground movementAlso insideGround improvement and problem soils, including preloading and vertical drains, densification, grouting and soil mixing, expansive and collapsible soils, organic deposits, karst, and frost-susceptible ground. More than one hundred and thirty worked examples expose the decision points rather than the arithmetic, practice problems in every chapter are answerable from that chapter alone, and forty-plus tables keep the book usable at the desk.Written for practicing civil and geotechnical engineers, design office and construction staff, engineering geologists, and graduate and senior undergraduate students, as well as engineers returning to geotechnical work after time away.Add the handbook that follows a project from the first boring to the final design check, and start reading the ground with the confidence it demands.…
