Soil Mechanics
CIV_226

Description
The aims of the course are to provide students with theoretical and conceptual knowledge necessary for the understanding of soil conditions and to determine their physical and mechanical behavior for the correct and reliable way of dealing with geotechnical problems. 
Upon successful completion of the course students will be able to apply Geotechnical Engineering methodologies for solving geotechnical problems such as settlements of shallow foundations rested on cohesive and non-cohesive soils, bearing capacity of shallow foundations, lateral earth pressures, slope stability and landslides. Students are also expected to be able to determine the physical and mechanical characteristics of soils, calculate geostatic stresses and their distribution in the soil semi-space from various types of loads, and to understand their influence on the behaviour of structures.
