In particular, Chapter 2 contains new material on the prediction of foundation settlements, including the case of increase in deforthation modulus with increasing depth. Chapters 3 and 4 have been revised to take aecount of recent experiences of the behaviour of shallow founda- tions on swelling and shrinking clays. Chapters 5 and 9 have been extensively re-written to cover developments in the construction of deep ‘basements using diaphragm walls and other specialist techniques. The author is grateful forthe help of Mr P.F. Winfel, FIStrutE, for commenting on the text and checking the worked examples. He would like to take this opportunity of thanking George Wimpey and Company Limited, his former employers for nearly thirty years, for their encourage ‘ment, and opportunities for experience on foundation works in inany parts of the world. t IN Gratefol acknowledgement is made tothe (ollowing who have given permission te reproduce illustrations, photographs, and other Gcorge Wimpey and Company Limited—Figs. 1.3, 1.18, 1.20, 1.24 $.4, 52, 5.16, 6.30, 8.11, 81906), 93, 94, 9.11, 10.10, 10.17, 1118, 11.19, 11.27, 11.33, and 12.18.
