Soil Mechanics
The focus of
Soil Mechanics
is the understanding of soil behavior, construction with soils, on and in soils, the use of soils as construction material etc.
Soil mechanics
is a branch of civil engineering that has witnessed an enormous developement during the twentieth century.All aspects of
soil mechanics
and soil engineering are included in this section covering a wide range of engineering issues such as soil compaction, soil foundation, soil improvement, soil behavior, soil reinforcement etc.
