Fundamentals of Geotechnical Engineering
Fundamentals of Geotechnical Engineering combines the essential components of Braja Das’ market leading texts, Principles of Geotechnical Engineering and Principles of Foundation Engineering. The text includes the fundamental concepts of soil mechanics as well as foundation engineering without becoming cluttered with excessive details and alternatives. Foundations. features a wealth of worked out examples, as well as figures to help students with theory and problem solving skills. Das maintai

It’s excellent book for introduction to Geotechinical Engineering. Only problem I had with this book is that I was not familiar with SI units, but you will get use to it later as you solve some problems by yourelf. There is occassional typos errors with example problems and equation you may need to be careful. Other than that it is still the best book I’ve read in regards to Geotechincal subject. The book is generally easy to read and understand.

A good book for those looking for a very basic, easy-to-read, book. It does have exercises after each chapter, which is good for students. However, many of them are very “repetitive”; the only difference between them are the numbers used in them. I should add that there aren’t much challenging problems; most of them are easy.The book doesn’t go deep in some important topics. In some cases the theory seems to be just a “brief intro” to the topic, rather than a real discussion about it. Of course, this does not mean it’s a bad book… but it should be taken into account (as the title says) that it deals with the very “fundamentals” of geotechnical engineering.
