This is a textbook for the course of Soil Mechanics for university students of civil and hydrotechnical engineering, and also for students of other specialities associated with construction of engineering structures, such as road contractors, remedial contractors, geologists and soil scientists. The author has made an attempt to write a concise course on the basis of a wide synthesis of natural sciences and to present the theoretical data in the most simple and comprehensive form without depreciating, however, the general scientific aspects of the problem. His other aim was to present a number of engineering solutions of problem in the theory of soil mechanics (calculations of strength, stability and settlement) which might be widely used in engineering.
