Geoenvironmental engineering issues are of increasing importance around the world. This international trend is apparent in the UK governments active encouragement of the use of brownfield sites for urban development to ease the pressure on the countryside. This book contains the collected papers from the 2nd Geoenvironmental Engineering Conference, organised by the British Geotechnical Society and Cardiff Universitys Geoenvironmental Engineering Research Centre.
