CIVL-3015Geotechnical Materials 2

This course consists of evaluating shearing strength of soils, using the Mohr’s envelope and Coulomb’s equation to represent the shearing strength of soils. Furthermore, it consists of understanding the concept of total and effective stress, slope stability analysis, vertical and horizontal stresses in a soil mass and determination of the consolidation characteristics of soils. The course introduces the behaviour of seepage water, the hydraulic conductivity properties of different soils, methods of soil and slope stabilization.
