Advances in Civil and Structural Engineering: Geotechnical Solutions and Infrastructure Systems / Volume 1

This book provides practical geotechnical engineering solutions to deal with complex geology and the construction of densely populated urban areas, focusing on solving common problems in foundation safety, tunnel construction, and long-term use of buildings. By integrating methods to improve seismic performance, new engineering material applications, and structural life assessment tools, engineers are provided with a guideline that can be directly referenced. As global infrastructure expands into geologically complex regions, traditional engineering methods are facing challenges in terms of safety and durability. This book presents practical proven technical paths: practical solutions to improve the properties of concrete materials; A design approach to enhancing the coordination between foundations and buildings; Structural life assessment method combined with field data. These contents originate from real scenarios such as underground engineering and sea-crossing bridges, balancing theoretical depth with practical needs. The content of this book is closely related to engineering practice and meets the needs of two core readers: academic researchers can learn about the latest advances in new material properties and interdisciplinary modeling; Front-line engineers can directly refer to on-site solutions such as tunnel safety reinforcement and ground settlement control. By bridging theoretical research with engineering cases, this book helps improve the safety, adaptability, and sustainability of infrastructure. It is suitable for civil engineers, geotechnical technicians, university graduates, and professionals engaged in foundation design, underground engineering, and maintenance of important facilities.
