    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Long description:

    This practical guide offers a comprehensive exploration of the principles and applications of geotechnical engineering in mining. It combines academic rigor with real‑world insight to bridge the gap between theory and practice to enable the design of safe, efficient, and sustainable mines.


    Structured to provide a clear and systematic understanding of mining geotechnical engineering, this book covers a broad range of topics, including rock mechanics principles; rock mass classification and characterization; stability of open pit slopes, waste containment facilities, and underground pillars; ground control using pillars, rock bolts, and shotcrete; and mining‑induced surface subsidence. Rich with practical examples, detailed case studies, and chapter‑based reference lists, this book encourages readers to explore each topic in depth. Study questions at the end of every chapter reinforce key concepts and support active learning, equipping readers with the essential analytical tools and engineering judgment and making this an indispensable resource for anyone seeking to master the geotechnical foundations of modern mining practice.


    By integrating fundamental theory with empirical, analytical, and numerical approaches – alongside practical design procedures and field applications – Mining Geotechnical Engineering serves as both a valuable reference for practicing professionals and a comprehensive textbook for students in mining, geotechnical, and civil engineering.
