Abdulrahman AlhabshiIntroduction to Soil Mechanics
Significance of this ClassCivil Engineering - Texas Tech UniversityWhy do you need to learn about soils?Almost all structures are either constructed of soil, supported on soil, or both.
Who must be concerned with soils?Civil engineers (structural, environmental and geotechnical) must have basic understanding of the soil properties in order to use them effectively in construction.
