Learning outcomes
The student:
- selects the type of foundation, depending on the type of structure
and soil-water condition,
- selects optimal methods of soil and foundation improvement,
- describes special geotechnical technologies,
- designs pad footings and retaining wall
- presents and justifies the solutions adopted in the project.
