Book Reviews of Principles of Foundation Engineering
Book Review: A very handy book for school and then work.
Summary: 5 Stars
Braja M. Das has probably built the closest thing to a foundation engineer's bible. I had this book in school and now use it regularly at work. It helps that i know every page of what is taught here because I used it in school. The examples do not cut corners as they do in other books. It is very easy to learn. However, as a beginner you have to learn every page. There is a lot of information about soils and foundations, sometimes info that is only one line but can make a whole lot of difference in calculation. That is why this book is an important read and a wonderful write-notes-in tool.
Summary of Principles of Foundation Engineering
Braja M. Das' Fifth Edition of PRINCIPLES OF FOUNDATION ENGINEERING maintains 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.Science Books
