Description
Designed to be a supplemental text for an undergraduate, sophomore/junior-level introductory course in engineering geology. An ideal core text, it is equally suitable for use alongside an introductory text in physical geology for engineers, or as a supplement to an established undergraduate text in engineering geology.
Unique in its genre, this highly practical supplementary text to engineering geology centers around solving real-world problems, while covering such standard topics as stress, the stability of rock slopes, groundwater flow, and seismology.
