The cardinal objective of this book is to facilitate preparation for the Civil Engineering Licensure examination given by the PRC. Since this book includes complete discussion of the principles in geotechnical engineering, this may also serve as a guide to the civil engineering undergraduates.
This book is divided into 10 Chapters. Each chapter presents the formulas and principles in Geotechnical Engineering, followed by illustrative problems. Each step in the solution is carefully explained to ensure that it will be readily understood.
Most of the materials in this book have been used in my review classes. The choice of these materials was guided by their effectiveness as tested in my classes.
