Summary: great book! really a bible!
Rating: 5

this book is really great! it covers a lot of techniques and methods that are otherwise dispersed in magazines and companies, and that are rarely classified. it offers a section on design, monitoring, tables and software, for micropiles to anchor to sheet piles. i have no words. a great thanks to the author and the editor, for your contribution to the diffusion of knowledge.
