What will I learn?

This course offers a practical guide to identifying, testing, and choosing soils and rocks for building strong, lasting roads and retaining walls. You will master classifying local materials, planning site investigations, analysing lab and field test results, establishing compaction and quality control standards, handling risks from frost, swelling, and erosion, and using simple mitigation and documentation methods in actual projects.
