This book is the sixth volume of the proceedings of the 4th GeoShanghai International Conference that was held on May 27 - 30, 2018. This volume, entitled “Advances in Soil Dynamics and Foundation Engineering”, covers the recent advances and technologies in soil dynamics and foundation engineering. These papers are grouped into four categories: (1) soil dynamics and earthquake engineering, (2) deep excavations and retaining structures, (3) shafts and deep foundations, and (4) offshore geotechnics. It presents the state-of-the-art theories, experiments, methodologies and findings in the related areas. The book may benefit researchers and scientists from the academic fields of soil dynamics and earthquake engineering, geotechnical engineering, geoenvironmental engineering, transportation engineering, geology, mining and energy, as well as practical engineers from the industry.

Based on the expertise of a distinguished team of soil and foundation engineers, this handbook is the most complete and authoritative reference on the construction and repair of structural foundations available anywhere. It provides exclusive coverage of site development, structural failures, and foundation repair for residential and light commercial buildings, as well as for high-rise buildings and other types of heavy construction. Practical examples help clarify in-depth discussions of soil mechanics;
