    need to understand Unsaturated Soil Mechanics? Most of the natural soil systems are in arid and semiarid regions and soils subjected to seasonal moisture deficits are in an unsaturated state. Who needs unsaturated soil mechanics? Every geotechnical engineer needs to be aware of the th role played by the portion of soil with negative porepressure (i.e. generally the portion above the water table). Many present solutions in soil mechanics and foundation design are quite approximate and
