Book excerpt: Laterite Soil Engineering is one of a few books about solving engineering problems with the help of engineering pedology. This book presents the latest information on the laterite soils’ geotechnical characteristics and engineering behavior. It shows that laterite soils are different from natural soils and that most laterite soils can be evaluated for engineering purposes using accepted theories and well-known test procedures for temperate-zone soils. This book also shows that modern concepts based on pedological considerations are very useful and take a logical approach to the identification and evaluation of laterite soils for engineering purposes. The first four chapters focus on reviewing information about the processes of tropical weathering and laterization. Chapter five summarizes information about the location, morphology and composition of laterite soils. Chapter six highlights the geotechnical implications of the pedogenic processes of tropical weathering, and it emphasizes the contribution of the results of these pedogenic processes to the deviations of engineering behavior of the problem of laterite soils. In addition, chapter seven discusses the influence of laterite soil genesis on the physic-chemical characteristics based on comparing the properties of three genetic soil groups formed under three different weathering conditions. Chapters eight through nineteen discuss the geotechnical characteristics and evaluation of laterite soils, and the effects of pedogenesis and soil-forming factors on the geotechnical and stabilization characteristics of laterite soils. The last chapter discusses the little information that exists on the application of laterite soils in engineering problems.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nine soils derived from basalt and five soils derived from volcanic ash, all from Hawaii, were subjected to shear strength tests, engineering index tests, pore size distribution measurements, slaking tests, scanning electron microscopy, x-ray analysis, and thermo-gravimetric analyses. Relationships are established between the quantitative mineral contents and the engineering behavior of the soils according to the relative degree of weathering that the soils have experienced. These relationships suggest a classification for basalt derived soils based upon the specific gravity of the solids and the void ratio of the soil. No classification system is proposed for ash derived soils but the limited data suggest a system similar to that for the basalt soils might apply. (Author).
