Engineering: general
This book introduces the basic principles of engineering behaviour of soils. The text is designed in such a manner that the syllabi of a core course in Soil Mechanics/Geotechnical Engineering I prescribed in the curriculum of most of the Indian universities is covered. While reading the text, student experiences classroom teaching-learning process. An emphasis is made on explaining the various concepts rather than giving the procedure. After reading this book, students should be able to: •   Give an engineering classification of a soil •   Understand the principle of effective stress, and then calculate stresses that influence soil behaviour •   Calculate water flow through ground and understand the effects of seepage on the stability of structures. This textbook is primarily intended for the undergraduate students of civil engineering. Key Features •   Numerous numerical solved examples •   Objective Type Questions (with Answers) at the end of each chapter •   Use of SI Systems of units
