Om denne e-bog
This book intends directly the practical engineers, who will be of great interest in reading the interesting chapters. Earthwork projects are critical components in civil construction and often require detailed management techniques and unique solution methods to address failures. Being earthbound, earthwork is influenced by geomaterial properties at the onset of a project. Hence, an understanding of the in-situ soil properties and all geotechnical aspects is essential. Analytical methods for earth structures remain critical for researchers due to the mechanical complexity of the system. Striving for better earthwork project management, the geotechnical engineering community continues to find improved testing techniques for determining sensitive properties of soil and rock, including stress wave-based, non-destructive testing methods. To minimize failure during earthwork construction, past case studies and data may reveal useful lessons and information to improve project management and minimize economic losses.
Om forfatteren
Shehata is the founder and CEO of the Soil-Structure Interaction Group in Egypt “SSIGE.” He is a partner and vice-president of EHE-Consulting Group in the Middle East, and managing editor of the “Innovative Infrastructure Solutions” journal, published by Springer. He worked in the field of civil engineering early, while studying, with Bechtel Egypt Contracting & PM Company, LLC. His professional experience includes working in culverts, small tunnels, pipe installation, earth reinforcement, soil stabilization, and small bridges. He also has been involved in teaching, research, and consulting. His areas of specialization include static and dynamic soil-structure interactions involving buildings, roads, water structures, retaining walls, earth reinforcement, and bridges, as well as, different disciplines of project management and contract administration. He is the author of an Arabic practical book titled “Practical Solutions for Different Geotechnical Works: The Practical Engineers’ Guidelines.” He is currently working on a new book titled “Soil-Foundation-Superstructure Interaction: Structural Integration”. He is the contributor of more than 50 publications in national and international conferences and journals. He served as a co-chair of the GeoChina 2016 International Conference in Shandong, China. He serves also as a co-chair and secretary general of the GeoMEast 2017 International Conference in Sharm El-Sheikh, Egypt. 2016 Outstanding reviewer of the ASCE as selected by the Editorial Board of International Journal of Geomechanics.
Prof. Dr. Mona Badr El-Din Anwar is the Instructor of the Geotechnical Engineering at The German University in Cairo. Dr.Anwar earned her B.Sc., M.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees from Helwan University, Egypt in 1994, 1997 and 2001, respectively. Dr. Anwar taught and conducted research in most fields of Geotechnical Engineering as a university faculty member (Helwan University; 1995 - 2017) and in the (German University in Cairo; 2014 till now). Dr. Anwar is also a Consultant Geotechnical Engineer participating in planning, analyzing, designing and providing follow up for many projects. ShejoinedDar Al-Handasah Consultants (Shair and Partners) from 2008 to 2014, during this period she has been actively involved in many mega projects in Gulf area and in Africa. Dr. Anwar is also member of the Egyptian Code of Practice for Geotechnical Engineering and Foundations on problematic soilcommittee; member of the ISSMFE; member of the ASCE and member of the ISRM
