Synopsis
"The Engineering of Foundations" incorporates theory into real world practice. The text emphasizes conceptual understanding and avoids an oversimplistic treatment of the subject. Estimation of soil parameters for use in design is given high priority. Users will find an up-to-date text that relates theory to real world practices and integrates concepts and continuity of examples across chapters. Illustrations, applications and hands-on examples are provided. The text not only explains the "how," but also the "why.", The Engineering of Foundations incorporates theory into real world practice.

    Book is in very good condition as was shown in the pics. I received the package pretty fast considering it was coming from the other side of the country but it was definitely well packaged for the trip. I also feel a paid a good price for the book and would recommend this seller.

    This book was meticulously packed. Wrapped and packed in cardboard with enough tape to make opening it a little tough. It arrived in great condition (as described), no doubt thanks to this. I think the value was decent, considering it's rarity. Shipping was pretty good.
