Synopsis

Geoenvironmental engineering issues are of increasing importance around the world. This international trend is apparent in the UK government's active encouragement of the use of brownfield sites for urban development to ease the pressure on the countryside. This book contains the collected papers from the 2nd Geoenvironmental Engineering Conference, organised by the British Geotechnical Society and Cardiff University's Geoenvironmental Engineering Research Centre. The conference was convened to facilitate the exchange of information on the latest developments in research and practice in this field, and the 70 papers, presented by authors from around the world, address a wide range of topics relating to ground contamination.
