CONTENTS NOTE
Text of Note
"A comprehensive resource, the book describes the evaluation of physical properties of soils, including mass, weight, unit weight, and mass density of the soil mass and its component phases. These properties are then expanded to define a number of weight and volumetric relationships. The book also discusses tests used in the evaluation of the density-water content relationships in soils and in the soils and in the evaluation of the quality of compaction operations."--BOOK JACKET.
Text of Note
"A step-by-step manual on the basic tests performed in soil mechanics, Introduction to Soil Mechanics Laboratory Testing provides procedural aids and elucidates industry standards. It also covers how to properly present data and document the results. Containing numerical examples and figures, the book's information is based on recommendations presented in American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) standards and U.S. Army Corps of Engineers engineering manuals."
