What does excavating?

In civil engineering, excavation is a process whereby rock or soil material is removed from the ground usually forming a void or hole.


Why study soil mechanics as a separate discipline?

Soil Mechanics like fluids mechanics and structural mechanics and engineering surveying are the core disciplines of civil engineering for well over 70 years from the days of Terzaghi, father of soil mechanics. It is a separate discipline since soil behaviour cannot be predicted like the methods used for testing the behaviour of structures and fluids,yet ideas similar to these disciplines have been used but the testing and classification of soil had to be on its own. Now the discipline has a broad base to be known as geotechnics or geotechnical engineering.


What is Suitability?

Site suitability in civil engineering is a determination made before a project is begun. Soil samples, compaction, other measurements are taken.


What does excavations means?

In civil engineering, excavation is a process whereby rock or soil material is removed from the ground usually forming a void or hole.
