Introduction-

Explain different types of problems that geotechnical engineer faces. [2070 Magh][2]

The basic Geo-technical problem associated with soil mechanics are:Problem of stability and the Problem of elastic and plastic deformations.Following infrastructure developments can be associated with various Geo-technical problems in civil engineering:

  1. Foundation
  2. Retaining Structures
  3. Stability of slopes
  4. Underground structures
  5. pavement design (fatigue failure,frost,heave and thaw)
  6. Earth dams
  7. Miscellaneous soil problems (soil heave,soil confidence,frost, heave,shrinkage and swelling of soils)
