SOIL MECHANICS | LAB MANUAL
Soil Mechanics
Soil is one of the very important engineering materials.
Determination of soil conditions is the most significant task in every civil
engineering activity. Properties of the soil can be determined by both field
and laboratory test methods. It is critical to quantify the various properties
of soil in order to predict its behavior under different loading conditions for
the safe design of soil structures. The Soil Mechanics and Foundation Engineering
Laboratory is a compulsory and basic undergraduate course where introduction to
Geo-technical Engineering will be provided and also for graduate level research
students.
