Environmental Soil Properties and Behaviour by Raymond N. Yong (9781439845295)

Description - Environmental Soil Properties and Behaviour by Raymond N. Yong

Examining the many changes in soil properties and behavior as a result of stresses from both anthropogenic and environmental forces, this critical work details the requirements of soils to maintain their design engineering properties (rheological, transmission, buffering, and ion-accumulation) over their projected life-spans. It discusses the use of soils as engineered materials in the construction of structures on and in the ground, including foundations, bridges, nuclear waste repositories, tunnels, and other civil infrastructures. The book presents numerous laboratory tests, procedures, techniques, data gathering, data reduction models, and analyses of soil structure.
