The real-life projects are more complicated than laboratory simulations. Researchers and Engineers need field data to calibrate and validate their computational models. Ground Improvement Case Histories: Compaction, Grouting, and Geosynthetics offers elaborate descriptions of real-life studies, field data, and first-hand observations based on the practical aspects of the design and construction procedures, as well as the effectiveness of soil treatment deployed worldwide.

  • Comprehensive analysis methods using numerical modelling methods
  • Features 26 chapters covering over 700 pages of contributor generated case histories from all over the world.
  • Offers field data and clear observations based on the practical aspects of the construction procedures and treatment effectiveness

Ground Improvement Case Histories: Chemical, Electrokinetic, Thermal, and Bioengineering Methods provides a full range of Chemical and Bioengineering ground improvement techniques; the principles behind how the techniques “work”, for which soils they are appropriate and how they are installed or constructed. Where relevant, the principles of design or construction procedures are introduced. The specific technology followed by applications, and in some cases comprehensive back analysis through numerical modelling is included.

  • Case histories include Effect of Drainage and Grouting for the World Longest Seikan Undersea Tunnel Construction, Cement/lime Mixing Ground Improvement for Road Construction on Soft Ground
  • Features 22 chapters covering over 700 pages of international case histories supported by an abundance of illustrations and worked out equations
