'Baltic Piling' contains the proceedings of the ‘Baltic Piling Days 2012’ (Tallinn, Estonia, 3-5 September 2012). The book includes contributions on current issues in pile foundation engineering:
- Interaction of pile and grillage;
- Formation of pile bearing capacity
- Settlements of piles
- Pile foundation under historical buildings
- Thermopiles, and
- Interaction of georgid and pile.
'Baltic Piling' will be of interest to engineers, academics and students interested in pile foundation engineering and related disciplines.
