Summary : A comprehensive guide to the most useful geotechnical laboratory measurements Cost effective, high quality testing of geo-materials is possible if you understand the important factors and work with nature wisely. Geotechnical Laboratory Measurements for Engineers guides geotechnical engineers and students in conducting efficient testing without sacrificing the quality of results. Useful as both a lab manual for students and as a reference for the practicing geotechnical engineer, the book covers thirty of the most common soil tests, referencing the ASTM standard procedures while helping readers understand what the test is analyzing and how to interpret the results. Features include: Explanations of both the underlying theory of the tests and the standard testing procedures The most commonly-taught laboratory testing methods, plus additional advanced tests Unique discussions of electronic transducers and computer controlled tests not commonly covered in similar texts A support website at www.wiley.com/college/germaine with blank data sheets you can use in recording the results of your tests as well as Microsoft Excel spreadsheets containing raw data sets supporting the experiments

Summary : This Book Highlights The Procedures For 30 Tests Used To Measure The Engineering Properties Of Soil In Both Laboratory And Field Including Dynamic Testing Of Soils. All The Test Procedures Are Based On Indian Standard Practice And Are Very Close To Astm Standards. Features Of This Book Include: * Test Procedures And Tabular Forms For A Maximum Number Of Field And Laboratory Tests. * Classification Of The Soil Tests Based On Type Of Project And Type Of Soil. * A Set Of Questions Is Presented At The End Of Each Chapter For Self Examination. * For Each Test, Theoretical Principles And The Precautions To Be Followed During The Test Are Explained.This Book Will Be Useful To B.Tech./B.E. (Civil Engineering) And M.E./ M.Tech. (Geotechnical Engineering) Students As Laboratory Manual And Reference Book. It Is Hoped That This Book Will Also Be Useful To Field Engineers As Handbook In Soil Mechanics As It Helps In Deciding The Test Programme For A Given Project. Similarly, The Book Will Be Helpful For Quality Control Engineers.
