Road and Geotechnical Laboratory

Summary

The course deals with the soil water regime in the road, the effects of freezing. Another area of ​​interest of course is the issue of stability embankment and cuts, the possibility of mathematical modeling of the stability issues and principles and methods of geotechnical monitoring in road construction. Practical measurements complement theoretical knowledge of how other types of nondestructive testing.
