Geotechnical Engineering (Geotech)
(Civil Engineering)
Geotechnical Engineering also known as geotechnics, is the sub-discipline of civil engineering which is concerned with the engineering behaviour of natural geological materials. It uses the principals of soil mechanics and earth mechanics to solve its engineering problems. Geotechinacal engineers investigate and determine the properties of subsurface conditions and materials. They also involved in the planning and execution of earthwork . It includes,without being limited to, the analysis, design and construction of foundation, slopes, roadways, tunnels, retaining structures, landfills, embankments, levees, wharves, landfills and other systems that are either made of or are supported by soil or rock.
