Modeling aspects have added a new dimension in research innovations in all branches of engineering. In the field of soil and water engineering, they are increasingly used for planning, development, and management of land and water resources, including analysis of quantity and quality parameters of surface and ground water, flood forecasting and control measures, optimum allocation and utilization of irrigation water. The application of these models saves considerable time in decision support systems and helps in conservation and optimum allocations of scarce precious natural resources.

Proceedings of the 2010 Earth Retention Conference held in Bellevue, Washington, August 14, 2010, organized by the Earth Retaining Structures Committee of the Geo-Institute of ASCE. The 72 papers presented in this proceedings examine the major developments in the design and construction practice of earth retaining structures worldwide, over the past twenty years. The topics analyzed in this proceedings include: supported excavations, mechanically stabilized earth retaining walls, seismic evaluation of retention systems, numerical analyses of retention systems, load and resistance factor design, and landslide stabilization.

The ICE Manual of Project Management makes a major contribution towards the improvement of knowledge and skills in civil engineering project management through providing a central reference source for project managers working on civil engineering construction projects. Offering clear and accessible guidance on how practitioners can apply the key principles and standards in practice, the IICE Manual of Project Management provides a thorough introduction to the key processes involved in civil projects. It also discusses the range of skills and techniques that project managers working in a construction context will need to employ competently in order to plan and deliver projects successfully in accordance with prevailing international standards. The manual will also be available as an online repository of concise briefing papers and case studies.

Nothing can be built without some excavation and transfer of soil (or rock) from one part of a site to another and this makes earthworks the most common product of civil engineering operations. Although normally seen as major structures, such as earth fill dams or large highways or railway embankments, the majority of earthworks are connected with minor civil works and building construction. Whatever the type of work, the principles are the same. Earthworks: a guide accumulates information on topics that are essential to earthworks engineering.
