HANDBOOK OF Volume 1 SOIL MECHANICS SOIL PHYSICS by ÁRPÁD KEZDI Professor of Civil Engineering, Technical University of Budapest, Hungary Professor Kézdi’s Handbook of Soil Mechanics now appears, inthiscomplete­­ly revised and updated version, for the first time in English. It will consist of four volumes, dealing with the physical pro­perties of soils; with applications in the field of foundation engineering, earth­works and road construction; soil testing; practical applications and case histories, respectively. Volume 1, Soil Physics, provides the reader with the theoretical background necessary for solving geo­technical problems associated with soil mechanics, and will thus contribute to­wards a better understanding of soil behaviour by presenting a comprehen­sive treatment of the subject to serve as an introduction to the applications.
