Basic Geotechnical Earthquake Engineering By Kamalesh Kumar
Publisher: New Age International 2008 | EAN:9788122420791 ISBN: 9788122426205 | PDF | 4 MB
A basic textbook on geotechnical earthquake engineering. It is lucidly written and is suitable for undergraduate as well as first year postgraduate course in civil engineering with soil mechanics and foundation engineering at undergraduate level as prerequisite.

Key Features:
Subject matter is organised logically to make it easy and interesting for the students.
Emphasis has been given on the basics of geotechnical earthquake engineering.
Home work problems have been given at the end of each chapter to test the understanding of concepts given in the chapter.
At the end of appropriate chapters solved numerical problems as well as exercise numerical problems as home work problems have also been to make the related concepts clear.
