Books by Renato (Politecnico di Torino Lancellotta

This book presents current approaches in certain areas of geotechnical engineering, state-of-the-art reports highlighting the open issues and a review of design practices, suggesting changes based on experience and recently-acquired knowledge.

Suitable as a textbook for students of geotechnical engineering, this title provides information on the mechanics of soils and soil-structure interaction. It gives a presentation of the fundamental principles of soil mechanics and demonstrates how these principles are applied in practice to engineering problems and geotechnical design.
