Soil mechanics and foundation engineering – An exclusive book for civil engineers

Dr. K. R. Arora, having 25 years of teaching experience, has written an exclusive book alias soil mechanics and foundation engineering. The book is available in PDF version.

The book is specifically designed for the undergraduate students as well as the students appearing for different competitive examinations and AMIE. A huge numbers of charts and tables are provided to make the text informative for practicing engineers.

Soil mechanics and foundation engineering (geotechnical engineering) is a part and parcel of civil engineering that witnesses a significant growth. The book is enriched with the most updated information in the field. The author has accumulated the material from different sources and demonstrated them in the form of a text.
The text is segregated into two parts. The first part sheds light on the basics of soil mechanics. The second part focuses on earth retaining structures and foundation engineering. The subject matter is explained in a rational and organized way.
The book comprises of the syllabi of undergraduate courses in soil mechanics and foundation engineering prescribed by most of Indian Universities and Institutes.
With the use of simple and coherent language, the author tries to narrate the basics for the students. Basic concepts have been emphasized throughout. The special emphasis is given on the complexities faced by the students. The book is supported with the extensive range of descriptive examples to present the application of the theory to field issues. Numerical problems, with answers, are provided for practice.
Some objective type questions are provided at the end of the each chapter.
The text is plentifully exemplified with diagrams and charts. Latest IS codes are abided by, as far as possible. References are provided at the end of each chapter. Both MKS and SI units are applied in this book.
