Synopsis

The only book of its kind, "Geotechnical Testing, Observation, and Documentation" is an in-depth field manual for soil technicians and field engineers. Designed to be used as a reference guide during the investigation, grading, and construction phases of a geotechnical project, this book provides solutions to actual geotechnical project situations. From an extensive section on how to classify soil in the field using the Unified Soil Classification System, to chapters on basic laboratory testing, exploration techniques, documentation, and sampling methods, readers are afforded a thorough understanding of the complete process involved during the geotechnical project. "Geotechnical Testing, Observation, and Documentation" shows how to understand common laboratory and field tests, classify soil accurately, interpret project recommendations, improve communication, and document the entire construction monitoring process. With photos, diagrams, standard details and test forms, step-by-step test procedures with tips, and a glossary of geotechnical related terms, this book is an invaluable training tool for technicians and engineers.
