About this episode
An extensive academic resource for students of civil engineering and technology. Now in its third edition, the work integrates both soil mechanics and foundation engineering into a single, comprehensive volume to address a lack of unified learning materials. It emphasizes practical application by including numerous graded problems, objective questions, and clear references to Indian Standards for professional relevance. The author has transitioned the text to the S.I. unit system to reflect modern global practices while maintaining a logical progression of complex scientific theories. Key subjects covered include soil composition, seepage analysis, bearing capacity, and the design of various foundation types like piles and caissons. Overall, this book aims to provide a clear, pedagogically sound guide that simplifies intricate geotechnical concepts for undergraduate learners.
