SummaryTable of Contents
The authors of this book discuss the recent advances and current knowledge in the geotechnical design of energy geostructures.  Energy geostructures have been a tremendous innovation in the field of foundation engineering and are rapidly spreading all around the world. They enable a renewable and clean source of energy to be produced, which can be used for the heating and cooling of buildings. This technology links the structural role of geostructures with the energy supply, using the principle of shallow geothermal energy. This book provides a sound grounding in this challenging area.
