Aim: To enable the participants to use design and construction ethods based on international practise and standards in foreign soil and rock types.- To evaluate strength and deformation properties for spil and rock types unlike typical danish types. |
Contents: International geotechnical engineering practise, regional soil and rock properties, field and loboratory procedures. Soil and rock types like laterite, black cotton soil, loess, permafrost in arctic regions and soft and weathered rock types are treated. |
