      abstract = {This book approaches the problems of slopes and  excavations with technical knowledge and helps to better  control the dangers and thus prevent damage to the  population. Embankments as sloping earth surfaces occur  everywhere. They are more or less worked by man, thus  altering their natural state. Thus one should the effects  of these changes and to be sure about the safety of the  slopes. Only with this knowledge changes should be carried  out in order to be able to assess their impact on people  and the surrounding area. Excavation pits are being placed  deeper and and closer to neighboring structures, and must  therefore be handled by engineers. This book is a  translation of the original German 3rd edition Boschungen  und Baugruben by Bernhard Wietek, published by Springer  Fachmedien Wiesbaden GmbH, part of Springer Nature in 2020.  The translation was done with the help of artificial  intelligence (machine translation by the service  DeepL.com). A subsequent human revision was done primarily  in terms of content, so that the book will read  stylistically differently from a conventional translation.  Springer Nature works continuously to further the  development of tools for the production of books and on the  related technologies to support the authors. The content:  Slopes - Excavations - Spatial structures - Shorting -  Underpinning - Shafts - Anchors and soil nails The target  groups: - Civil engineers and architects in planning  execution, structural and geotechnical engineers - Design  engineers and experts in construction supervision, planing  and engineering offices, construction technicians -  Students of civil engineering and geotechnical engineering  The author: Prof. Dipl.-Ing. Bernhard Wietek is a civil  engineer for civil engineering and owns an engineering  office, he is involved in the education of civil engineers  in many ways.},
