It explores the physical properties of soils and the behaviour of soil masses subjected to loads, as well as soil phases, classification and characteristics, stresses and fluid flow, consolidation, compressibility and compaction, shear strength, lateral earth pressure, slope stability and bearing capacity. These core principles can be applied to soil-like materials, such as coal ashes and mine tailings, and are explored using real-life scenarios and worked examples. Key features include real-life case studies and worked examples, easily digestible topic summaries, over 100 explanatory diagrams, and suggestions for further reading. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eRevised and updated, this new edition features\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ea new chapter covering a range of special topics, including expansive soil, thermal and electrical properties of soil, reinforced soil and soil liquefaction\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eupdates to existing chapters include sustainability considerations, some advanced topics, and recent developments in soil mechanics\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eupdated and additional multiple-choice questions, and numerical\/conceptual problems. \u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eICE Core Concepts: Soil Mechanics\u003c\/em\u003e provides broad coverage of soil mechanics in a concise and accessible format, and is ideal for students, practising engineers and other related professionals who require a concise introduction to this subject.
