Why should you study about engineering soil mechanics and foundations book? Learning the principles of engineering soil analysis, theories and practices are essential for civil and geotechnical engineering, particularly for all engineering cases in geotechnical systems that need combination mechanics, physics, and mathematics to determine the behavior, design and construction of soil mechanics on stability
Soil Mechanics and Foundations 3rd Edition, by M. Budhu offers clear explanation of fundamentals, principles, concepts and theories behind the practice of soil mechanics application in wide range of construction in geotechnical field, particularly for providing right steps and knowledge to characterize and classify the types and soils, so we know how treat and investigate it in two and three dimensional with failure analysis
The author of Soil mechanics and foundations book,Muniram Budhu also provides analytical guideline to determine effective stresses, shear strength, stress distribution for various loading and pressure types with methods of field compaction in order to measure affected factors
In the part of foundation engineering, this engineering soil mechanics and foundations book also offers the role of how to measure bearing capacity and predict failure for all machine, well, shallow and pile foundations with Terzaghi and Meyerhof analysis that can be used also to determine effect or eccentricity and water tables, by using penetration tests on design of flexible pavement
