Product Information

"Sinkholes and Subsidence" provides a twenty-first century account of how the various subsidence features in carbonate and evaporite rocks cause problems in development and construction in our living environment. The authors explain the processes by which different types of sinkholes develop and mature in karst terrains. They consider the various methods used in site investigations, both direct and indirect, to locate the features associated with these hazards and risks, highlighting the value of hazard mapping. Various ground improvement techniques and the special types of foundation structures which deal with these problems are covered in the second half of the text. This book is supplemented with a wealth of actual case studies and solutions, written by invited experts.

From the reviews: "Waltham ... and colleagues at the British Geological Survey introduce sinkholes in karstic terranes, with an emphasis on engineering and construction. ... The book is profusely illustrated and includes numerous boxes intended to highlight important features. It corrects numerous misconceptions surrounding sinkholes and provides students and professionals with remarkably valuable information that is easy to read; it also readily serves as a handy desk reference. ... Summing Up: Highly recommended. Upper-division undergraduates through professionals." (M.S. Field, CHOICE, Vol. 42 (10), June, 2005) "This book was written by geologists for engineers.

I found the book an excellent and highly informative read and I suspect that most engineering geologists and geotechnical engineers would find equal value within its pages. ...
