Muniram (Muni) Budhu is Professor of Civil Engineering & Engineering Mechanics at the University of Arizona, Tucson, Arizona. He received his BSc (First Class Honors) in Civil Engineering from the University of the West Indies and his PhD in Soil Mechanics from Cambridge University, England. Prior to joining the University of Arizona, Dr. Budhu served on the faculty at the University of Guyana; McMaster University, Canada and the State University of New York at Buffalo. He spent sabbaticals as visiting Professor at St. Catherine’s College, Oxford University; Eidgenössische Technische Hochschule Zürich(Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, Zurich), and theUniversity of Western Australia.
This accessible, clear and concise textbook strikes a balance between theory and practical applications for an introductory course in soil mechanics for undergraduates in civil engineering, construction, mining and geological engineering.
Soil Mechanics Fundamentals lays a solid foundation on key principles of soil mechanics for application in later engineering courses as well as in engineering practice. With this textbook, students will learn how to conduct a site investigation, acquire an understanding of the physical and mechanical properties of soils and methods of determining them, and apply the knowledge gained to analyse and design earthworks, simple foundations, retaining walls and slopes.
The author discusses and demonstrates contemporary ideas and methods of interpreting the physical and mechanical properties of soils for both fundamental knowledge and for practical applications.
The chapter presentation and content is informed by modern theories of how students learn:
