A Laboratory Manual on Soil Mechanics (Testing and Interpretation)
presents an illustrative treatment of the testing techniques of soils in
the laboratory and field for determination of engineering properties.
Twenty-four lab-based experiments have been included on the various
aspects of Soil Mechanics. The testing procedure, methodology and
suitable data presentation tables are based upon relevant Indian
standard specifications. The data analysis shall make the students aware
of techniques generally used for the determination of soil properties
in the laboratory as well as in the field. With its coverage, the book
is an indispensable lab manual for the civil engineering students and
other allied areas like geotechnical engineering, agricultural
engineering etc. It will also be a useful reference for scientists and
researchers in the area of soil mechanics studies.
