In recent years, technological advancements in the field of unsaturated soil mechanics have helped improve understanding in this field for both researchers and engineering practitioners. Gaspar & Jacobsz (2019) presented a short overview of some key principles of unsaturated soil mechanics and highlighted how measurement techniques (both in the laboratory and in-situ) are becoming increasingly available in South Africa. The purpose of this article is to present a review of the two years following that publication to illustrate the uptake of these developments in engineering practice.
