Laboratory testing of fine-grained soils usually evaluates basic soil behaviour. This manual covers characterization tests such as determination of carbonate content, specific surface area, cation exchange capacity, and pore fluid salinity, and behaviour tests such as the Atterberg Limits tests or the Linear Shrinkage test.

This book covers the field of applied geotechnology related to all aspects of construction in ground, including compacted fill, excavations, ground improvement, foundations, earth retaining systems and geotechnical site characterization. Ideal for graduate students and practicing engineers.
