Présentation de l'éditeur

For sophomore/senior-level courses in Geotechnical Engineering or Soils and Foundation Engineering offered in Construction or Civil Engineering departments.

This unique lab manual guides students step-by-step through the hows and whys of the most commonly used testing methods in civil engineering practice―those based on the latest American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) and American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) procedures. The manual uses a consistent “Procedure,” “Data,” and “Calculations” format for each test; contains completely worked examples showing the computations required for the analysis and evaluation of the test data collected; discusses what data, results, and other information should be presented in the test report; and explains what the test results will be used for in practical engineering problems. Blank data reporting forms and graph papers are provided for most tests, and an accompanying diskette contains state-of-the-art, user-friendly software for compiling test data, performing calculations, plotting curves, and obtaining final results.

Quatrième de couverture

This geotechnical laboratory manual for civil engineering, civil engineering technology, and construction science students and professionals uses a simple, direct style to explain each test procedure. It offers guidelines on collecting and evaluating data, as well as presenting the results properly: Typical values are given for many of the tests to help students decide if their results are reasonable.

Some of the key features include:
  • Updated to conform to the very latest information from ASTM.
  • Definitions and objectives of tests are fully explained.
  • Step-by-step numerical calculations.
  • Engineering uses of the tests to show how the results are used in practical engineering applications.
  • A unique chapter presents a visual-manual procedure for describing and identifying soils.
  • Coverage of the consolidated undrained (CU) triaxial test.
  • Photographs of various types of soil testing equipment.
  • Software included that allows the user to more easily analyze collected data.
