Riassunto

Roughly 275 papers from the 2011 conference are presented in three volumes. Broad themes include field investigations, laboratory testing, classification, selection of parameters, modeling, unsaturated hard soils--weak rocks, shallow foundations, deep foundations, ground reinforcement, embankments and dams, and slope stability. A sampling of specific topics: microstructure and mechanical behavior of a saturated compacted scaly clay, a methodology for reconstituting weakly cemented sandstones, the performance of prefabricated vertical drain preloading with tand without vacuum and heat, and the laboratory frost heave testing procedure, to name just a few. Most of the papers are in English, with a smaller number in French. Titles and abstracts for each paper are in French and English. Indexing (included in each volume) is in English. Editors Michael Pachakis and Christos Tsatsanifos are consulting engineers; Andreas Anagnostopoulos is affiliated with the National Technical U. of Athens, Greece.
