    Engineering Properties of Soil

    This chapter reviews the engineering properties of soils needed to evaluate the parameters for foundation design. Tests for classification, compressibility, permeability and shear strength of soils are discussed. Soil exploration, sampling and field tests are explained. Several examples are also worked out.
