Product Description

Product Description
The revision of this best-selling text for a junior/senior course in Foundation Analysis and Design now includes an IBM computer disk containing 16 compiled programs together with the data sets used to produce the output sheets, as well as new material on sloping ground, pile and pile group analysis, and procedures for an improved anlysis of lateral piles. Bearing capacity analysis has been substantially revised for footings with horizontal as well as vertical loads. Footing design for overturning now incorporates the use of the same uniform linear pressure concept used in ascertaining the bearing capacity. Increased emphasis is placed on geotextiles for retaining walls and soil nailing.

4.0 out of 5 stars Bowles gets Metric, 2 Sep 1997
By A Customer
I am quite pleased with J. Bowles' previous edition (4th), but unless you are familiar with or solely use the metric system of units, I would recommend the 4th Edition (1988). It contains the same basic information, and includes both US and metric (in parenthesis) units.

Gary Marcus.

4.0 out of 5 stars Handy reference for the practitioner, 21 Nov 2006
By B. Chitambira - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This book is a handy reference for the practitioner. The fifth edition has an international appeal with calculations and problems in SI units. Its a good read for advanced students as well.

There are a few inevitable mistakes and typos however this should not distract a keen reader who wants to master Foundation analysis and design. The MS-DOS programs supplied with the 5th edition are quite useful as well although I have only used a few of them.
