All our infrastructure is either on or in the ground. As a result, geotechnical engineering plays a key role in all major civil engineering projects in the UK and beyond.
ICE Proceedings: Geotechnical Engineering provides a forum for the publication of high quality, topical and relevant technical and practical papers covering all aspects of geotechnical research, design, construction and performance. The journal aims to be of interest to those civil, structural or geotechnical engineering practitioners wishing to develop a greater understanding of the influence of geotechnics on the built environment.
Geotechnical Engineering covers all aspects of geotechnical engineering including tunnelling, foundations, retaining walls, embankments, diaphragm walls, piling, subsidence, soil mechanics and geoenvironmental engineering. Presented in the form of reports, design discussions, methodologies and case records it forms an invaluable reference work, highlighting projects which are interesting and innovative.

Lime modication of clay soils for construction expediency C. D. F. Rogers, BSc, PhD, CEng, MICE, MIHT, S. Glendinning, BSc, PhD, and T. E. J. Roff, BEng, MSc j Lime modication has the potential to reduce greatly the delays to construction projects caused by wet weather. The initial consumption of lime (ICL) test, currently used as an indicator of how much lime to use, is shown to produce results that can be both inconsistent and excessively conservative...
