Features: Soil mechanics, rock mechanics, and foundation engineering are mandatory courses in undergraduate civil engineering education and are widely applied in engineering practice. The purpose of writing this book is to help undergraduates, especially those preparing for postgraduate entrance exams, achieve a comprehensive understanding and mastery of the course content, while also meeting the practical needs of exam preparation. The content is closely aligned with textbooks and current codes, with some sections being of moderate difficulty and complexity, making it suitable for reference by a broad range of engineering professionals preparing for registered engineer exams. The book is divided into four parts: Part I is Soil Mechanics; Part II is Rock Mechanics; Part III is Foundation Engineering; and Part IV is Geotechnical Mechanics and Foundation Engineering Simulation Exam Questions. This book is suitable for civil engineering students in universities as a reference book for postgraduate entrance exams and as a supplementary textbook. It can also provide reference for engineering professionals in related fields.
