Soil Mechanics for PEs

Credit: 2 hour

This Webinar Course “Soil Mechanics” will outline and provide guidelines for the application of the laws of mechanics (physics) to soils as engineering materials.

The Principles for evaluating “Soil Mechanics” presented in this course are as follows:

•          Index & Gradation

•          Soil Classi?cation

•          Compaction

•          Permeability, Seepage, and Effective Stresses

•          Consolidation and Rate of Consolidation

•          Strength of Soils: Sands and Clay

•          Model Examples

•          Moderated Q & A
