Features: This book is a systematic summary of embankment engineering based on the extensive work of predecessors, combined with recent research achievements and extensive engineering practices in embankment engineering in recent years. The book covers an overview of embankment engineering in major river basins and lakes in China, such as the Yangtze, Yellow, Haihe, Huaihe, Heilongjiang, Pearl, Taihu, Dongting, and Poyang Lakes, including characteristics of main river channels, basin geological conditions, major engineering geological issues, engineering geological conditions of important embankments, and geological conditions of major hazardous sections. The purpose of writing this book is to assist engineering technicians in embankment investigation, design, and construction by providing insights into the characteristics of their own river basins and other engineering geological conditions. Therefore, this book serves as a reference tool for embankment engineering geological technicians, a resource for flood control efforts in various river basins, and can also be used as a reference for university and college students, as well as relevant technical personnel.
