This core course provides solid background knowledge on the properties and behaviour of soils for geotechnical engineering practices. Topics for the course are shear strength, compressibility and consolidation of soils, and slope stability. At the end of the course, students should be able to analyse and apply the related theories of soil behaviour, and to solve problems of stresses on retaining structures, consolidation settlement and slope stability.
Knowledge of the course will help the students in designing civil and geotechnical engineering structures.
