  • More about Laboratory Manual for Geotechnical Characterization of Fine-Grained Soils

This manual provides advanced laboratory tests for fine-grained soils, including characterization and behavioral tests, to help graduate students in geotechnical engineering and practitioners understand soil behavior better.

Format: Hardback
Length: 306 pages
Publication date: 18 October 2022
Publisher: Taylor & Francis Ltd


This comprehensive manual offers detailed procedures for conducting advanced laboratory tests on fine-grained soils. It encompasses a range of tests, including characterization tests, which determine soil composition and quantify the individual components of a soil, and behavioral tests, such as the Atterberg Limits tests, which illustrate how the fines fraction of a soil reacts when mixed with water, and the Linear Shrinkage Test, which demonstrates how much a soil shrinks.

By delving beyond traditional evaluation of basic soil behavior, this material presents a wealth of advanced laboratory tests that enable a more detailed characterization of soil. These tests provide valuable insights into subtle changes in conditions and vertical variations within the soil, contributing to a better understanding of unusual behavior.

The manual is particularly valuable for graduate students in geotechnical engineering, as well as practitioners and researchers seeking to expand their knowledge and expertise in soil testing. It provides a systematic and comprehensive approach to understanding the complex behavior of fine-grained soils, enabling informed decision-making in various engineering applications.
