Foundations written by Muni Budhu, Professor, Department of Civil Engineering
& Engineering Mechanics University of Arizona, is printed by John Wiley and
Sons. This textbook is written for an undergraduate course in soil mechanics
and foundations.
It has three primary objectives.
1. The
first is to present basic concepts and fundamental principles of soil mechanics
and foundations in a simple pedagogy using the students’ background in
mechanics, physics, and mathematics.

learning aids to assist students in understanding the various topics in soil
mechanics and foundations.

Some of the key features of this textbook are
• Topics
are presented thoroughly and systematically to elucidate the basic concepts and
fundamental principles without diluting technical rigor.

• The
solution of each example is preceded by a strategy, which is intended to teach
students to think about possible solutions to a problem before they begin to
solve it. Each solution provides a step-by-step procedure to guide the student
in problem solving.
