What will I learn?
This short, practical Geotechnics Course builds confidence in planning and interpreting site investigations for highways, from boreholes and in-situ tests to groundwater studies and lab programs. Learn to evaluate soil and rock behaviour, assess slope, embankment, bridge, and settlement risks, choose mitigation measures, and present clear, defensible recommendations using sound judgement and targeted monitoring strategies.
