| Objectives | |
|---|---|
| THE COURSE ON “GEOTECHNICS” IS AIMED AT PROVIDING THE ALUMNI WITH THE KNOWLEDGE ON THE MECHANICS OF SATURATED SOILS. THANKS TO THE SYSTEMATIC USE OF THE LAWS GOVERNING THE BEHAVIOR OF THE MULTI-PHASE POROUS MEDIA, THE COURSE IS ALSO ORIENTED TO HIGHLIGHT HOW THE ANALYSIS OF GEOTECHNICAL BOUNDARY PROBLEMS DEPENDS ON A PROPER KNOWLEDGE AND CHARACTERIZATION OF THE REFERENCE PHYSICAL CONTEXT AS WELL AS ON AN ADEQUATE INDIVIDUATION AND SOLUTION OF THE EQUATION GOVERNING THE PROBLEM AT HAND. |
| Prerequisites | |
|---|---|
| THE PREREQUISITES ARE: THE CONCEPT OF STRESS AND STRAIN; THEIR REPRESENTATION VIA MOHR CIRCLES; THEORY OF ELASTICITY; HYDRAULIC GRADIENT. |
| Contents | |
|---|---|
| IN-SITU INVESTIGATIONS AND LABORATORY TESTS FOR SOIL IDENTIFICATION AND CLASSIFICATION. STRESS STATE IN SATURATED POROUS MEDIA. STEADY-STATE SEEPAGE AND TRANSIENT PHENOMENA. MECHANICAL CHARACTERIZATION OF SOILS IN PRE-FAILURE CONDITIONS AND AT FAILURE. BUILDING WORKS OF PRACTICAL INTEREST: FOUNDATIONS (SHALLOW AND PILE) AND RETAINING STRUCTURES (DIAPHRAGM AND RETAINING WALLS). |
| Teaching Methods | |
|---|---|
| THE TEACHING INCLUDES THEORETICAL LESSONS, SEMINARS AND TUTORIAL ACTIVITIES. THE TUTORIALS DEAL WITH THE DEVELOPMENT OF A REPORT ON THE PRINCIPAL TOPICS OF THE COURSE, WITH A PARTICULAR ATTENTION TO THE ASPECTS RELATED TO PRACTICE. SEMINARS AND A TECHNICAL VISIT ON A CONSTRUCTION SITE ARE ALSO SCHEDULED. |
| Verification of learning | |
|---|---|
| THE EVALUATION OF THE ACHIEVEMENT OF THE FIXED PURPOSES IS CARRIED OUT VIA AN ORAL EXAM INCLUDING A DISCUSSION ON THE CONTENTS OF THE REPORT SYNTHESIZING THE RESULTS OF THE TUTORIAL ACTIVITIES. |
