Description for Advances in Unsaturated Geotechnics: Proceedings of Sessions of Geo-Denver 2000 : August 5-8, 2000, Denver, Colorado (Geotechnical Special Publication)
Paperback. Contains 38 papers that aim to advance understanding of measuring, characterizing, and predicting the properties, behavior, and performance of unsaturated materials typically used in geotechnical engineering practice. This work addresses materials such as coarse-grained soils, compacted soils, geotextiles, loess, residual soils, and shales. Editor(s): Shackelford, Charles; Houston, Sandra L.; et al. Num Pages: 616 pages. BIC Classification: TNC. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate; (XV) Technical / Manuals. .
This proceedings contains 38 papers that advance understanding of measuring, characterizing, and predicting the properties, behavior, and performance of unsaturated materials typically used in geotechnical engineering practice. The materials addressed include coarse-grained soils, compacted soils, geotextiles, loess, residual soils, shales, spoil fill, and swelling and expansive soils. These unsaturated materials are characterized with respect to soil-water characteristic curves, hydraulic conductivity, shear strength, and/or stress-strain properties. Both static and dynamic loading conditions are considered. Advances in the state of the art with respect to both laboratory and field measurements of unsaturated soil properties are included. Finally, predictions of unsaturated soil properties ... Read more
