Publisher's Synopsis
Piling is a fast moving field, and in recent years there have been major advances in theory, methods, testing procedures and equipment. The third edition of this well established book has been comprehensively updated to cover these advances. Retaining the framework of previous editions, it provides a readable and well-illustrated account of design techniques, methods of testing and analysis of piles, with a marked emphasis on practice. "Piling Engineering" is written for geotechnical engineers, consultants and foundation contractors. It will also be a useful reference for academics and advanced students on courses in piling, practical site investigation, and foundation design and construction.
