- Syllabus
- 1) Unification of geotechnical engineering and geology (physical properties, classification after ČSN 73 6133, , ČSN EN ISO 14688, 14689) 2) Geostatic pressure, groundwater pressure, pore pressure, effective and total strengths, geotechnical category 3) I would like to build a house, what shall I do? Engineering geology and hydrogeological survey methods. 4) Total and effective soil properties, a pore pressure, laboratory soil tests 5) My intention is to evaluate a slope stability, what shall I do? A numerical slope stability back analysis 6) Clay minerals, properties, compressibility, swelling, settlement of loess blanket and designed buildings 7) I design a warehouse foundations, what sort of a geological investigation I would arrange/draft for? Designed building foundation load, foundation soil reaction, shallow and deep foundations. 8) I would like to design a building on a potentially unstable slope, what I have to do? 9) Rock slope stabilisation by the use of rock bolts, rock properties and classification, rock bolts and nails types 10) Traffic tunnels (blasted and excavated), traffic bridges, a geotechnical investigation draft, a construction supervision 11) Traffic constructions geotechnical investigation 12) Static and dynamic penetration tests and assessments, non-typical investigation in situ and lab. methods, a comparison of NZS, ISO, EC, ČSN, AU standards 13) Earthquake, soil liquefaction, on peat building foundation, liquid sands 14) Student’s technical theses presentations
