Written by an author with more than 25 years of field and academic experience, Soil Improvement and Ground Modification Methods explains ground improvement technologies for converting marginal soil into soil that will support all types of structures. Soil improvement is the alteration of any property of a soil to improve its engineering performance. Some sort of soil improvement must happen on every construction site. This combined with rapid urbanization and the industrial growth presents a huge dilemma to providing a solid structure at a competitive price. The perfect guide for new or pra

Die Geländemodellierung spielt in der Landschaftsarchitektur eine der Hauptrollen, sie ist neben der Bepflanzung/Vegetation das wichtigste Element zur Gestaltung der Landschaft. Landschaftsarchitekten müssen in der Lage sein, mit Höhenlinien zu entwerfen, schnell Alternativen zu entwickeln und Varianten bezüglich Gestaltung, Ökologie, Ökonomie und Technik zu prüfen. Dazu sind Kenntnisse der Geländemodellierung unabdingbare Voraussetzung.Das Buch erläutert grundlegende Aspekte der Geländemodellierung: Geländeformen, Maßstäbe, Interpolation, Höhenpunkte, Höhenlinie, Erdmassenberechnung, und führt in Themen wie Hangsicherungssysteme, Regenwassermanagement oder Geländemodellierung auf der Baustelle ein. In der zweiten Auflage werden diese Grundlagen um neue Technologien wie landscapingSMART, digitale Geländemodellierung (DGM) und 3D-Maschinensteuerung aktualisiert. Hinzu kommen die Geländemodellierung von Straßen und Parkplätzen sowie weitere Baummaschinen zur Geländemodellierung.Zahlreiche Praxisbeispiele ergänzen die theoretischen Grundlagen, in einem Aufgabenteil kann das Erlernte angewendet werden.

Grading is one the most important aspects involved in landscape architecture, and, together with planting and vegetation, the most important tool in designing landscape. Landscape architects must be able to design using contour lines, as well as rapidly develop alternatives and consider options regarding design, ecology, economy, and technology. Knowledge of grading is an indispensable prerequisite. The book explains the basic aspects of grading such as land forms, scales, interpolation, elevation points, contour lines, earth mass calculation, and also introduces the topics of slope protection systems, rainwater management, or onsite grading. In the second edition, these basics have been updated to comprise new technologies including landscaping SMART, digital terrain modeling (DTM) and 3D machine control, as well as grading for roads and parking lots, and other terrain modeling construction machines. Numerous practical examples complement the theoretical foundations, and there is a section for exercises aimed at applying what has been learned.

Minimize loss of revenue and the downtime of critical assets by avoiding foundation cracking, poor bonds, and initial alignment changes. After their successful introduction as a maintenance material, machinery grouts are now being used for equipment placement in new construction. While certainly suitable for both markets and applications, a successful installation depends on proper grout selection, application, foundation preparation, and forming methods. Therefore, guidelines on their uses and limitations are needed for engineers and maintenance personnel. Based on 45 years of field
