Institute of Geotechnics (GTN)

The result of teaching is managing general overview of the geotechnical disciplines. It is the soil and rock mechanics, engineering geology and hydrogeology, foundation and underground structures. Students will become familiar with the basic types, specifics and technology works and structures. It is also familiar with the instrumentation and monitoring in geotechnical and geodetic methods used in it.

No one special principles. General knowledge of civil engineering, techniques and natural sciences.

Not applicable.

Teaching methods are standard. Interpretation of the lectures are supplemented with simple practical examples in practice. Part of the course is the excursion.

The credit must be met by participation in education and training programs from solved exercises.
The test is performed in the form of a check test.

1. The subject and content of geotechnics. Classification of foundation soils, rocks and week rocks.
2. Geotechnical categories and limit states of foundation soils.
3. Footings of buildings(shallow and deep)
4. Technologies of footings
5. Survey works of engineering geology
6. In situ tests of rock mechanics
7. Stability analysis of slopes and cliffs
