Civil and Environmental Engineering #14: Reinforced Soil Engineeringby Hoe I. Ling
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:This one-of-a-kind reference evaluates the efficacy, stability, and strength of various soil walls, slopes, and structures enhanced by geosynthetic materials. Offering stimulating contributions from more than 50 leading specialists in the field, Reinforced Soil Engineering compiles recent innovations in design layout, controlled construction, and geosynthetic material implementation for improved cost-efficiency, maintenance, and functioning in civil engineering applications. The book focuses on geotechnical earthquake issues and case histories from countries including the United States, Canada, Japan, Taiwan, Turkey, and other European nations. Book News Annotation:Focusing on the latest developments in reinforced soil technology,
this book addresses geotechnical earthquake issues and presents
applications and case histories from around the world. It examines
the use of geosynthetic materials for separation, reinforcement,
filtration, and drainage, and looks at relevant design parameters and
specifications. Several chapters are based on presentations given at
the October 2000 International Workshop on Seismic Design of
Reinforced Soil Structures. Ling teaches in the Department of Civil
Engineering at Columbia University.
