Summary Annotation Contains 38 papers from the August 200 conference that advance the understanding of measuring, characterizing, and predicting the properties, behavior, and performance of unsaturated materials typically used in geotechnical engineering practice. The materials include coarse-grained soils, compacted soils, geotextiles, loess, residual soils, shales, spoil fill, and swelling and expansive soils. These unsaturated materials are characterized with respect to soil- water characteristic curves, hydraulic conductivity, shear strength, and stress-strain properties. Predictions of unsaturated soil properties and their behavior in specific applications are also addressed. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
