High Resolution Pressuremeters and Geotechnical Engineering focuses on
pressuremeters with internal transducers that allow measurement of
strength, stiffness and in situ reference stress. It outlines the
principles and the basics of the technology, gives guidance on good
practice and making reliable analysis, provides case studies, and
compares the pressuremeter test with similar ones from other devices to
enable engineers to make informed choices.
- A unique, up-to-date guide to high resolution pressuremeters with
internal transducers
- Contextualises analyses and advice to enable an informed choice of
testing processes
- Presents analyses previously unpublished in book form
This practical guide will suit professionals at the consultancy level,
pressuremeter practitioners and site investigation companies.
