You need to be able toquickly adapt your project plan to include an improvement tounfavorable ground before the project can safely continue.

Principles and Practice of Ground Improvement is the onlycomprehensive, up-to-date compendium of solutions to this criticalaspect of civil engineering. Dr. Jie Han, registered ProfessionalEngineer and preeminent voice in geotechnical engineering, is theultimate guide to the methods and best practices of groundimprovement. Han walks you through various ground improvementsolutions and provides theoretical and practical advice fordetermining which technique fits each situation.
•Follow examples to find solutions to complex problems
•Complete homework problems to tackle issues that presentthemselves in the field
•Study design procedures for each technique to simplify fieldimplementation
•Brush up on modern ground improvement technologies to keepabreast of all available options
