Geotechnical Engineering 2 (Foundation Engineering) Lecturer: Engr. Mmrtating

This document outlines the course content for a Geotechnical Engineering 2 course focused on foundation engineering. The course covers topics such as compressibility and shear strength of soils, triaxial tests, soil bearing capacity, settlement analysis, lateral earth pressure, slope stability, retaining walls, sheet pile walls, braced cuts, and pile foundations. Key concepts covered include Rankine's and Coulomb's theories of lateral earth pressure, factors of safety for slope stability, types of retaining walls and piles, and methods for estimating pile capacity and settlement. Design of reinforced concrete footings is also addressed, including isolated, combined, trapezoidal, and strap footings.
