Geotechnical Engineering Handbook, Volume 3, Elements and Structure

In this third volume of the Geotechnical Engineering Handbook the theories and methods covered in the two previous volumes are used in practical situations for all kinds of geotechnical structures, such as spread foundations, pile foundations, caissons, excavation retainments, trench, sheet pile and gravity walls, machine foundations, foundations in subsidence areas and watertight structures.

The first English edition is based on earlier German editions but with several new authors, and with due adaption in favour of the English speaking profession.
