                   <p>MIL-HDBK-1007/3, DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE HANDBOOK, SOIL DYNAMICS AND SPECIAL DESIGN ASPECTS (15 NOV 1997) [SUPERSEDING NAVFAC DM-7.3], This military handbook replaces the Naval Facilities Engineering Command (NAVFACENGCOM) design manual, DM-7.3. It contains material pertaining to soil dynamics, earthquake engineering, and special design aspects of geotechnical engineering. The soil dynamics section of this handbook deals with basic dynamic properties of soils, machine foundations, dynamic and vibratory compaction, and pile driving response. The earthquake engineering section deals with earthquake response spectra, site seismicity, design earthquake, seismic loads on structures, liquefaction, and base isolation. The special design aspects section deals with seismic design of anchored sheet pile walls, stone column and displacement piles, and dynamic slope stability and deformation. This military handbook is to be used by geotechnical engineers, working for the Department of Defense (DOD), for guidance in designing military facilities. </p>
