Osnova předmětu

Lecture: (issues)
Geological characteristics of the geological environment.
General and specific classification of rocks and rock massifs.
Geodynamic processes and risks arising from them.
Methods of enginnering geological survey and methodology
Engineering geological maps, thematic maps files
EG documents for evaluation of foundation conditions for the surface, underground structures,
dump, remediation and reclamation work.
Hydrosphere and water in the rocks (the general patterns of accumulation and flow
fluids in rocks, water balance equation).
Properties and characteristics zvodněných systems (aquifer properties their identification, classification systems, hydraulic and HG conditions in the system).
The quality of surface and shallow groundwater. Basics hydrogeochemical assessment of natural water, aggressive treatment for building construction.
Groundwater regime (classification and description of major types, HG measurements and observations, data processing forms).
HG exploration and drainage in underground mining and construction (systems and
HG design work, types, stages and objectives of the survey, drainage construction
pits, mines and quarries).
The survey and remediation of groundwater pollution (pollution monitoring, bandwidth
sanitary protection, conflicts of interest - legislation and standards).
Hydrogeological investigation for construction of surface and underground dumps waste (liquid and solid industrial wastes, municipal wastes, in terms of legislation hydro).
Hydrological Service of the CR - observation networks, monitor hydrological data
CHMU. The basic legislation of the CR - water law and its applications in civil engineering.
The obligations resulting from the balance of surface water and groundwater.

Practice
Classification of rocks based on descriptive properties and results of laboratory tests.
Assessment of geological and geomorphological conditions in the defined area, the prognosis risk.
Documentation drilling, processing and interpretation of the geological profile (lump size, RQD, etc.)
Approximate evaluation of rocks according to the results of tests and functional classification (permeability, frost susceptibility , workability, etc.)
