GEOS7AF Soils and subsurface formations | ECTS Credits : 2 Duration: 21 hours
| Semester : S7 | ||
Person(s) in charge : Yann GUNZBURGER, Associate Professor, yann.gunzburger@mines-nancy.univ-lorraine.fr | ||||
Keywords : Geotechnic, Water, Collapse, Soil Résistance, rock slope stability | ||||
Prerequisites : Courses SGEOS7AC and SGEOS7AD, or equivalent coursework | ||||
Objective : This course deals with the fundamentals of Geotechnics. This field studies the characteristics as well as the mechanical and hydromechanical behaviour of poorly consolidated land surface (“soils”) used as material or weight-bearing support in construction. The main points covered in this course focus on the role of water in soil (the phenomena of settlement and swelling) and the resistance properties of soil when submitted to natural or man-made loads. The genesis of soils (and more generally, surficial geologic deposits) will also be presented.
