Prof. Mounir Bouassida (University of Tunis El Manar, Tunisia), member of the editorial committee of the SEAGS journal published the book referenced:

Bouassida M. (2016). Design of Column-Reinforced Foundations. J. Ross Publishing (FL, USA), August. 224 pages. ISBN: 978-1-60427-072-3.

This book addresses the design of foundations on reinforced soil by columns within a general framework where several aspects are taken into consideration: modeling of reinforced soil, bearing capacity, settlement, acceleration of consolidation, and improvement of soil characteristics with selected case histories. Unlike existing books on unique improvement techniques (deep soil mixing, stone columns, sand compaction piles) that focus on installation and equipment issues, this one-of-a-kind guide details design purpose. It is an important work for all in the geotechnical field, including practitioners, academics, and students.
