The
subject
of
earth
pressure
is
one
of
the
oldest
and
most
extensive
chapters
in
soil
mechanics
and
foundation
engineering
and
is
one
of
the
pillars
of
structural
engineering.
First
the
development
of
earth
pressure
theory
is
comprehensively
described.
The
descriptions
range
from
the
first
approaches
to
the
determination
of
earth
pressure
through
continuum
mechanical
earth
pressure
models
to
the
integration
of
earth
pressure
research
into
the
disciplinary
structure
of
geotechnics.The
main
part
of
the
book
comprises
a
selection
of
current
calculation
basics.
The
aim
is
to
provide
a
collection
of
working
instructions
for
foundation
and
structural
engineers
in
construction
companies,
consultants
and
in
building
supervision
as
well
as
students.
In
order
to
further
theoretical
understanding,
the
essential
basics
of
the
determination
of
earth
pressure
are
first
presented.
Then
the
most
important
processes
for
active
and
passive
earth
pressure
and
at-rest
earth
pressure
for
practical
application
are
dealt
with,
with
spatial
effects
also
being
taken
into
account.
The
book
sets
out
to
provide
brief
information
about
rarely
encountered
questions
with
references
to
further
literature.
In
recent
years,
the
dependency
of
earth
pressure
on
displacement
has
been
paid
ever
more
attention.
This
applies
not
just
to
the
passive
but
also
to
the
active
case.Questions
are
repeatedly
passed
to
the
DIN
committee
"calculation
processes".
A
selection
of
these
is
dealt
with
in
the
commentary
to
DIN
4085,
which
came
out
in
September
2018.The
history
of
earth
pressure
theory
is
supplemented
by
40
selected
short
biographies
of
scientists
and
practical
engineers,
who
have
taken
up
the
subject
and
further
developed
it
over
the
years.
The
book
also
has
two
appendices
with
terms,
formula
symbols
and
indices
as
well
as
earth
pressure tables.
