  • Reorganization of chapters—Several chapters have been divided, with specific topics expanded into separate chapters to improve ease of use and make the topics more digestible for students.
  • Soils Investigation Chapter 3 is now a chapter in itself, as is Soil Compaction Chapter 5, and Stress Path Chapter 8.
  • Updated and revised to enhance clarity—The content of each chapter has been enhanced by adding updated material and more explanations. In particular, significant improvements have been made not only to interpret soil behavior but in applying the basic concepts to practical problems.
  • Examples and problems—More examples with more practical “real-world” situations, and more problems have been added.
