Abstract:Engineering behaviour of soils is an important attribute to be considered as the foundation or even construction materials for civil engineering structures. One critical issue encountered by geotechnical engineers in construction works is predicting the engineering behaviour of soil with a view to assessing its suitability for any given construction purpose. Rating of soils based on their engineering behaviours can be achieved by classifying the soil into different groups and sub-groups of similar characterist… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
