The Short Course Series concentrates on how to get the fundamentals of a given subject right, and then how to use them in practical applications. It provides civil engineers, engineering geologists and students with the means to check that ground properties (inputs) and design predictions (outputs) collectively make sense.
These essential handbooks concentrate facts and figures in quick-reference charts and tables wherever possible and illustrate analytical methods with many worked examples.
The series is available to buy as a 5-book set and includes:
A Short Course in Geology for Civil Engineers
A Short Course in Soil Structure Engineering of Deep Foundations, Excavations and Tunnels
A Short Course in Geotechnical Site Investigation
A Short Course in Soil and Rock Slope Engineering
