As a result of teaching is increasing of the level of theoretical preparation of students for solution of practical tasks, preparation for in situ operation and development of teamwork. Students obtain by the passing of the subject current overview about contemporary techniques of testing and monitoring of foundation soil. Suppose solution will be dicussed with experinced experts. Integral part of the subject is terrain work and field excursion.

The students have to know basics of geology, physics, solid mechanics, elasticity and plasticity and geomechanics (soil/rock mechanics).

Not applicable.

Teaching is essentially a standard way (lectures - exercises). Part of the exercise is carried out in the laboratory and outdoor testing field. The course is also a report on the geotechnical survey.

Credit is awarded for participation in education, teaching surrendered report on geotechnical surveys and other fixed tutorials.
