Soil Strengthing and Slope Stability
PREFACE
Copyrighted Material
This book has as its purpose to draw together lessons of the past 35 years regarding soil
strength and slope stability. During this period, techniques and equipment for laboratory and
in situ tests have improved, our ability to perform analyses of slope stability has been revolutionized by the widespread use of computers, new methods of reinforcing and stabilizing
slopes have been developed, and a large number of investigations into slope failures have
provided well-documented and valuable case histories to guide engineering practice. It is
therefore an appropriate time to bring these elements together in a book that can serve geotechnical graduate students and professionals.
