Problematic soils brings together in one volume a collection of papers presented at the Problematic Soils symposium, organised by East Midlands Geotechnical Group of the Institution of Civil Engineers. The papers discuss the behaviour and characteristics of problematic soils (particularly those found in the UK), and they also offer guidance on possible treatment techniques that could be applied for their successful engineering.
The proceedings of this symposium are split into three sections. The first section deals with naturally occurring problematic soils. The second section deals with manmade/altered problematic soils, an area that is becoming increasingly important. The final section deals with engineering treatment of problematic soils.
Problematic soils will be essential reading for geotechnical engineers and provides the most recent developments in the geotechnical engineering of problematic soils.
