Hardcover. Condition: Fine. No Jacket. B&W photographs and archetecural drawings (illustrator). 1st Edition. This book provides the practicing engineer with a summary of the state-of-the art knowledge of expansive soils and practical solutions based upon the author's experience. Part I discusses theory and practice, and summarizes some of the theoretical physical properties of expansive soils. It also discusses various techniques employed to found structures on expansive soils such as drilled pier foundation, mat foundation, moisture control, soil replacement, and chemical stabilization. Part II presents five typical case studies. The author has found there are few records available regarding the cause of structural distress, their remedial measures, and, more importantly, the success of those efforts. Appendix A gives a suggested method of testing expansion and uplift pressure of clay soils, as a discussion paper not reflecting any regulatory or professional requirement. Appendix B gives the authors response to common precautions and solutions often proposed for structures built on expansive soils. Illustrated with architectural drawings and B&W photographs. xviii + 282pp. The author, Fu Hua Chen (1913-1999), was president of Chen and Associates, Inc., Consulting Soil Engineers, Denver, CO U.S.A. Honored early in his career as the man behind the incredible completion of China's Burma Road during World War II, Chen became known worldwide as the foremost authority on expansive soils. This book, Foundations on Expansive Soils (1975), is his most famous title.

Because of this alternate swelling and shrinkage, lightly loaded civil engineering structures are distressed. This has resulted in a huge financial loss. Hence, it is and important to devise innovative foundation techniques in order to counteract the volumetric changes occurring in expansive soils. The various foundation techniques which have been in vogue are physical and chemical alteration methods and tension resistant foundations. Tension-resistant foundation techniques are innovative techniques in which tensile forces generated through the process of swelling are counteracted through introduction of deep or anchor foundations.
