  • Enhanced coverage of the concepts and procedures for site improvements.
  • New material on basic geology and the formation of soil deposits, which affects the mechanics of soil behavior.
  • Discussion of data and design criteria for many practical applications involving soils, including site planning and site improvement as well as material for foundation design and construction.
