Characterisation and Engineering Properties of Natural Soils, Two Volume Set: Proceedings of the Second International Workshop on Characterisation and Engineering Properties of Natural Soils, Singapore, 29 November-1 December 2006

Product Description

The preceding two volumes published in 2002, described natural soils, and provided a valuable reference source for soil engineering scientists, researchers and professionals. Volumes 3 and 4 report on new, emergent research into the characterisation and engineering properties of soil types other than those documented in the first two volumes. A further emphasis is placed on narrowing the gap between the disciplines of soil characterisation and geostatistics.
