Model uncertainties in foundation design /
Chong Tang, Kok-Kwang Phoon.
- xix, 568 pages : illustration, 24 cm.
Includes bibliographical references and index.
'Geotechnical design codes worldwide are increasingly being directed to reliability-based design, for which the characterization of model uncertainty is a critical element. This practical book is based on a global load test database which provides information on the foundation, site or soil investigation, and load test results'--
