Soil:?
Natural aggregates of mineral grains, bulk or moderately sticky inorganic or organic in nature that have the ability to be separated by simple mechanical processes.
Structures built with soil
The dam embankment
Structures built in soil
Structural funds-foundations, piles, rafts, tunnels
Geotechnical Engineering
The unique combination of science, experience, judgement and passion to understand the uniqueness and variability of ground conditions arising from the forces of nature.
It is the art of determining the properties of hidden variables and materials to provide a tool that was expected at an acceptable level of risk and the optional cost.
Foundation Engineering
In a broad sense, foundation engineering art selection, design and construction elements that convey the weight of the construction in the underlying layers of soil or rock.
The role of the engineer is to choose the type of Foundation, its design and construction supervision.
