Description

Product Description A definitive guide, this book focuses on the design and construction of water infrastructure projects within karst formations and provides engineering approaches for preventing and mitigating their environmental problems. It features 200 figures, investigative techniques, practical design solutions, case studies with failure analysis, criteria proposals for groundwater protection zoning, and an extensive review of the unique hydrogeological dynamics. The author presents a wealth of data collected during his role as investigating and designing hydrogeologist on karst projects. He gives readers a better understanding of the challenges involved in engineering and construction in karst formations. Review "[Some chapters] provide a good introduction to some useful investigative techniques as applied to specific engineering problems in karstic terrains. Throughout, extensive case histories and examples abound, making this book particularly useful. Summing Up: Recommended." - CHOICE, January 2005 "DetailedAmong the most unusual and interesting techniques are the use of PFC foil liners on reservoir bottomsand the "geo-bomb"The book is well illustrated with diagrams and maps, most of them to support the case studiesthis book provides an important background that is often lacking." - Arthur N. Palmer, State University of New York "Milanovic is renowned for his work in this area, and this book reflects his vast experience. Throughout, extensive case histories and examples abound, making this book particularly useful. Summing up: Recommended." - Choice, 2004
