Soil Mechanics for Unsaturated Soils
by Delwyn G. Fredlund, Hendry Rahardjo
Category: Technology & Engineering

The principles and concepts for unsaturated soils are developed as extensions of saturated soils. Addresses problems where soils have a matric suction or where pore-water pressure is negative. Covers theory, measurement and use of the fundamental properties of unsaturated soils--permeability, shear strength and volume change. Includes a significant amount of case studies.
