Features: This book starts with the basic theories of groundwater, saturated and unsaturated seepage, and their numerical solutions, systematically and deeply discussing the influence of groundwater and pore water pressure fields on foundation deformation, bearing capacity, and stability. It argues for the relevant considerations in foundation support design and proposes evaluation methods for building foundation buoyancy resistance. These issues are undoubtedly hot and challenging topics in current relevant fields. The readers of this book include technical personnel engaged in structural design, engineering survey, and geotechnical engineering, as well as college, undergraduate, and graduate students in structural engineering, geotechnical engineering, and underground engineering. It is believed that this book will provide some assistance to their survey and foundation design work or professional studies.
