Engineering Geology

Important Elements An approachable overview of geology for engineers Important points with pictures and diagrams teaches how geology affects building planning and design. Synopsis The ground that a building, bridge, or road is constructed on has an impact on all engineering structures. The location and design of any engineering project are heavily influenced by geology, so engineers must have a fundamental understanding of the topic. Technical Geology provides an overview of the discipline's foundations and guarantees that engineers comprehend the working mechanisms and how they will affect the final product. Fundamental concepts like stratigraphy, types of rocks, structures, and geological processes are elucidated and contextualized. Introduced are the fundamentals of soil mechanics as well as the connections between groundwater levels and underlying geology. Professor Bell presents the methods that engineers will need to learn about and comprehend the geological conditions in which they intend to build, in addition to the theoretical knowledge that is required. The methods for conducting a site investigation are explained in detail, along with the risks and ways to avoid them under various circumstances.
