CVEN 3718 - Geotechnical Engineering 2
Primary Instructor
-
Fall 2020 / Fall 2021 / Fall 2022
Covers stress analysis and plastic equilibrium, sheer strength of soil, bearing capacity, lateral earth pressures, slope stability and underground construction. Analysis and design of shallow and deep foundations, retaining walls and other earth and rock structures. Selected experimental and computational laboratories.
CVEN 4728 - Foundation Engineering
Primary Instructor
-
Spring 2021 / Spring 2022
Focuses on geotechnical design of shallow and deep foundations, including spread footings, mats, driven piles and drilled piers. Coverage includes bearing capacity, settlement, group effects and lateral load capacity of the various foundation types. Additional topics include subsurface exploration, construction of deep foundations and analysis of pile behavior using wave equation and dynamic monitoring methods. Same as CVEN 5728.
