Complete Course on Geotechnical Engineering/Soil Mechanics

The course on Geotechnical Engineering includes study on engineering properties of soil and rock. It includes various properties of soil used for engineering analysis and soil identification. Particle size distribution and consistency limits are some of the properties useful for soil identification and classification. Shear strength of soil, compaction and consolidation are helpful in engineering analysis of soil. Permeability, seepage and earth pressure theories widen the scope of geotechnical engineering. The course is divided into different part and each part cover two to three topics clipped with powerpoint presentation. PPT’s are self explaining and easy to understand. Also, the clips are of short duration for better understanding and remembrance. Students are advice to note down essential details and do discuss for any clarification or conceptual understanding.
