Good Balance of Mechanics and Soil Physics
I am extremely pleased with Unsaturated Soil Mechanics by Lu and Likos. Out of the three major disciplines that study unsaturated soils 1) Soil Physicists, 2) Hydrogeologists, and 3) Civil Engineers; this book has a good balance of the necessary components of Soil Physics (i.e. surface tension, pressure potentials, suction measurements, capillarity) with the topics of...

Save your money and time, buy Soil Mechanics for Unsaturated Soils (Hardcover)by D. G. Fredlund, H. Rahardjo, this is a better book.

Good Balance of Mechanics and Soil Physics,

This review is from: Unsaturated Soil Mechanics (Hardcover)
I am extremely pleased with Unsaturated Soil Mechanics by Lu and Likos. Out of the three major disciplines that study unsaturated soils 1) Soil Physicists, 2) Hydrogeologists, and 3) Civil Engineers; this book has a good balance of the necessary components of Soil Physics (i.e. surface tension, pressure potentials, suction measurements, capillarity) with the topics of interest for the Civil Engineer (i.e. shear strength,suction and earth pressure profiles). I greatly appreciate the chapter summarizing the popular suction and hydraulic models. This book is appropriate for the study of unsaturated soils in a Civil Engineering curriculum. Unsaturated Soils books from an Engineering perspective are not in abundance, and this is a welcome addition with a recent copyright.
