Overview of Engineering Geology Book

Engineering Geology is a multi disciplinary subject having interaction with other disciplines, such as mineralogy, petrology, structural geology, hydrogeology, seismic engineering, rock engineering, soil mechanics, geophysics, remote sensing (RS-GIS-GPS), environmental geology, etc. Engineers require deeper understanding, interpretation and analyses of earth sciences before suggesting engineering designs and remedial measures to combat natural disasters, such as earthquakes, volcanoes, landslides, debris flows, tsunamis and floods. This book exclusively covers all aspects of Engineering Geology and is intended to serve the requirements of civil engineering, mining engineering, geology and applied geology. Square examples that can be applicable in Indian context have been included for better understanding of the geological challenges faced by the engineers. KEY FEATURES Provides multi-disciplinary study of earth sciences Discusses the site selection, design and construction of civil engineering structures in detail Includes case studies of geological problems in civil engineering projects Contains a number of illustrations to support the text Provides equitable statistical inputs Includes self-assessment questions
