Course Outcomes:
On completion of the course, the students will be able to:
- To predict soil behavior under the application of loads and come up with appropriate solutions to foundation design queries.
- Analyze the stability of slope by theoretical and graphical methods.
- Analyze the results of in-situ tests and transform measurements and associated uncertainties into relevant design parameters. Synthesize the concepts of allowable stress design, appropriate factors of safety, margin of safety, and reliability.
