Description

This concise collection of peer-reviewed papers discusses the origin of residual materials and their engineering and design challenges. Topics include relations of saprolite and residual soils to rock-type on the Appalachian Piedmont (from New Jersey to Alabama) predicting the mode, susceptibility, and rate of weathering of shales embankment dams in the Piedmont/Blue Ridge Province in situ measurement of rockfill properties foundation design in Karst residuum applications of soil nailing in residual soils estimation of in situ hydraulic properties of saprolite. Proceedings of sessions, Washington DC, November 10-14, 1996, Geotechnical Special Publications No. 63.
