520			_aA pesar de su prevalencia en las partes menos desarrolladas de los Estados Unidos y la mayoría de los países tropicales y subtropicales, residual del suelo se caracteriza a menudo como una mera extensión de la mecánica de suelos convencionales en muchos libros de texto. Ahora, con el rápido crecimiento de la construcción en estas regiones, es esencial para obtener una comprensión más completa de suelos residuales y sus propiedades y uno que se basa en un enfoque integrado para el estudio de suelos residuales y sedimentarias. Un texto pone este conocimiento a su alcance: Fundamentos de Mecánica de Suelos para sedimentarias y suelos residuales.
