This fourth edition of Civil Engineer's Reference lEkook has been completely rewritten and updated. It provides a concise and comprehensive survey of the fundamentals, theory and current practice in the many branches of civil engineering, giving state- of-the-art information and practical guidance for both student and practising civil engineers.

After an examination of fundamental theories as applied to civil engineering, authoritative coverage is included o n design practice for certain materials and specific structures and applications, and a particular feature is the incorporation of chapters on construction and site practice, including contract management and control.
