Soil represents the oldest and most-used building material, yet up to
now the subject of earthen structures has not been fully addressed. This
book describes the principles of soil as construction material
including its treatment using geosynthetics and stabilization. The book
focuses on the principles, logic of processes, understanding of the most
important problems, so that all participants in the construction
project can build earth structures more safely and economically.
