In Situ Testing Methods in Geotechnical Engineering delves into the realm of applied geotechnical engineering, focusing on the utilization of in situ testing techniques to ascertain soil properties and parameters for geotechnical design. This comprehensive guide provides an overview of the practical aspects of the most commonly employed and routine test methods, as well as test methods that engineers may consider incorporating on specific projects. Designed for a graduate-level course on field testing of soils, this text also serves as a valuable resource for practicing engineers.
The text examines test procedures for assessing in situ lateral stress, strength, and stiffness properties of soils, along with the determination of stress history and rate of consolidation. Readers are introduced to diverse approaches to geotechnical design of shallow and deep foundations through the use of in situ tests. Furthermore, the text delves into the potential advantages and disadvantages of employing in situ tests, emphasizing their significance in optimizing foundation designs and ensuring the safety and stability of structures built on soil.
By exploring the principles and applications of in situ testing methods in geotechnical engineering, this text equips readers with the knowledge and skills necessary to evaluate soil conditions, design effective foundations, and ensure the long-term performance of infrastructure projects.
