Géomorphologie Résumé : Geology is explained in this book, not only as having important civil engineering applications, but also as coheient geological general knowledge The authors, who are civil engineers and engineering geologists, explain the processes of how the ground is formed and therefore what it is made of and how it behaves as an engineering material This enables the civil engineer to work from a few first principles to decide if the ground is an asset or a hazard. Note de contenu : Summary : 1. Ground origins : Plate tectonics and the rock cycle 2. New ground Igneous rocks 3. Deposited ground- Sedimentary rocks 4. Changed ground Metamorphic rocks 5. Ground clock' Stratigraphy and terminology 6. Ground structure Maps, unconformity, faults and folds 7. Groundwater Flow, quality and protection 8. Ground hazards : Volcanoes, earthquakes and dissolution features 9. Ground properties Rock strength and compressibility A short course in geology for civil engineers [texte imprimé] / Marcus Matthews, Auteur ; Noel 1931-2006) Simons, Auteur ; Bruce Menzies, Auteur . - London : Thomas Telford, 2008 . - XX, 302 p. : ill. ; 25 cm.
