They also indicate the direction to be taken in future theoretical research. In an attempt to consider additional soils, California sand and clays were studied. A series of static loadings of three-dimensional footings were conducted on California sand. Static and dynamic loads were applied to two-dimensional footings on clay. It was established that the static loads were truly static by experiments conducted at low rates of loading.

The behavior of foundations for protective structures is studies through a combination of theoretical and experimental research. Particular emphasis is placed on formulating a mathematical model which accurately predicts the gross motion of a dynamically loaded footing. A single-degree-of-freedom model incorporating a linear damping factor is developed and the results obtained from this model are correlated with the results from experiments performed under previous contracts. Other studies reported included three-dimensional static experiments of small model footings on cohesive soils; static experiments on a cohesionless soil where the footing and surrounding soil are subjected to overpressure; development of the logarithmic spiral failure surface for bearing capacity of continuous foundations; and a solution of a dissipation mechanism for dynamic soil behavior.

Analysis, Design and Construction of Foundations outlines methods for analysis and design of the construction of shallow and deep foundations with particular reference to case studies in Hong Kong and China, as well as a discussion of the methods used in other countries. It introduces the main approaches used by geotechnical and structural engineers, and the precautions required for planning, design and construction of foundation structures. Some computational methods and computer programmes are reviewed to provide tools for performing a more realistic analysis of foundation systems. The authors examine in depth the methods used for constructing shallow foundations, deep foundations, excavation and lateral support systems, slope stability analysis and construction, and ground monitoring for proper site management. Some new and innovative foundation construction methods are also introduced. It is illustrated with case studies of failures and defects from actual construction projects. Some advanced and modern theories are also covered in this book. This book is more targeted towards the understanding of the basic behavior and the actual construction of many geotechnical works, and this book is not dedicated to any design code or specification, though Euro codes and Hong Kong code are also used in this book for illustration. It is ideal for consulting geotechnical engineers, undergraduate and postgraduate students.

One of the core roles of a practising geotechnical engineer is to analyse and design foundations. This textbook for advanced undergraduates and graduate students covers the analysis, design and construction of shallow and deep foundations and retaining structures as well as the stability analysis and mitigation of slopes. It progressively introduces critical state soil mechanics and plasticity theories such as plastic limit analysis and cavity expansion theories before leading into the theories of foundation, lateral earth pressure and slope stability analysis. On the engineering side, the book introduces construction and testing methods used in current practice. Throughout it emphasizes the connection between theory and practice. It prepares readers for the more sophisticated non-linear elastic-plastic analysis in foundation engineering which is commonly used in engineering practice, and serves too as a reference book for practising engineers. A companion website provides a series of Excel spreadsheet programs to cover all examples included in the book, and PowerPoint lecture slides and a solutions manual for lecturers. Using Excel, the relationships between the input parameters and the design and analysis results can be seen. Numerical values of complex equations can be calculated quickly. non-linearity and optimization can be brought in more easily to employ functioned numerical methods. And sophisticated methods can be seen in practice, such as p-y curve for laterally loaded piles and flexible retaining structures, and methods of slices for slope stability analysis.
