TLDR
The 7th edition of the "PrincipLES of FOUNDATION ENGINEERING" as discussed by the authors was published in the fall of 1983 and has been widely used in foundation engineering courses.Abstract:
Originally published in the fall of 1983, Braja M. Das' Seventh Edition of PRINCIPLES OF FOUNDATION ENGINEERING continues to maintain the careful balance of current research and practical field applications that has made it the leading text in foundation engineering courses. Featuring a wealth of worked-out examples and figures that help students with theory and problem-solving skills, the book introduces civil engineering students to the fundamental concepts and application of foundation analysis design. Throughout, Das emphasizes the judgment needed to properly apply the theories and analysis to the evaluation of soils and foundation design as well as the need for field experience.read more

Reduction in Wick Drain Effectiveness in Typical Utah Clays
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluated the impact of drain spacing on the time required to achieve primary consolidation in typical Utah clays and found that drain spacing is dependent upon drain spacing, soil profile, and anchor type.

Seismic hazard assessment on NPP sites in taiwan through an observation-oriented monte carlo simulation
Jui-pin Wang,Duruo Huang +1 more
TL;DR: The result shows that even though two NPP sites in Taiwan are only 30 km away from each other, NPP site 4 is situated with the seismic hazard four-time as large as NPPs 1 and 2, and none of a seismic hazard analysis is perfect without challenge.
