The need for a holistic view of geological materials, from soil to rock, and of geological history is emphasised. Chapters address key aspects of Geology for engineering and ground modelling Site investigation and testing of geological materials Geotechnical parameters Design of slopes, tunnels, foundations and other engineering structures Identifying hazards Avoiding unexpected ground conditionsThe book is illustrated throughout with case examples and should prove useful to practising engineering geologists and geotechnical engineers and to MSc level students of engineering geology and other geotechnical subjects.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51931331264800,"sku":"NEW0415469090","price":188.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/practical-engineering-geology-applied-geotechnics-0415469090","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
