SUSTAINABLE CIVIL INFRASTRUCTURES CONTEMPORAR...

This volume is of interest to practical engineers. It discusses some contemporary issues
related to soil mechanics in earthwork projects which are critical components in civil
construction and often require detailed management techniques and unique solution methods to
address failures. Being earth bound  earthwork is influenced by geomaterial properties at the
onset of a project. Hence  an understanding of the in-situ soil properties is essential. Slope
stability is a common problem facing earthwork construction  such as excavations and shored
structures. Analytical methods for slope stability remain critical for researchers due to the
mechanical complexity of the system. Striving for better earthwork project managements  the
geotechnical engineering community continues to find improved testing techniques for
determining sensitive properties of soil and rock  including stress-wave based  non-destructive
testing methods. To minimize failure during earthwork construction  past case studies and data
may reveal useful lessons and information to improve project management and minimize economic
losses. This volume discusses these aspects using appropriate methods in a simple way. The
volume is based on the best contributions to the 2nd GeoMEast International Congress and
Exhibition on Sustainable Civil Infrastructures  Egypt 2018 - The official international
congress of the Soil-Structure Interaction Group in Egypt (SSIGE).
