Synopsis

Landslides and Engineering Practice: Highway Research Board, Special Report No. 29 is a comprehensive guide to the study of landslides and their impact on engineering practices. Written by Edward Butt Eckel, this book is a compilation of research papers presented at the Highway Research Board's annual meetings between 1949 and 1951.The book covers various aspects of landslides, including their causes, types, and effects on engineering structures such as highways, bridges, and dams. It also discusses the methods used for landslide investigation and analysis, as well as the design and construction of landslide-resistant structures.The book is divided into six sections, each covering a specific topic related to landslides. The first section provides an overview of landslides, their causes, and their impact on engineering structures. The second section focuses on the methods used for landslide investigation and analysis, including field mapping, laboratory testing, and geophysical techniques.The third section covers the design and construction of landslide-resistant structures, including retaining walls, slope stabilization measures, and drainage systems. The fourth section discusses the use of instrumentation and monitoring techniques for landslide detection and early warning.The fifth section covers case studies of landslides and their impact on engineering structures, including highways, bridges, and dams. The final section provides recommendations for future research on landslides and their impact on engineering practices.Overall, Landslides and Engineering Practice: Highway Research Board, Special Report No. 29 is a valuable resource for engineers, geologists, and other professionals involved in the study of landslides and their impact on engineering structures.Additional Contributors Are Arthur M. Ritchie, Ta Liang, Donald J. Belcher, And Others.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
