Contenido Baltic Piling

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.
