- Synopsis:
-
A course dealing with practical exercise on geotechnical tests in laboratory and in-situ activities (The Josef underground laboratory, http://ceg.fsv.cvut.cz). It focuses on laboratory determination of soil and rock parametres neccessary for geotechnical calculations and design - basic physical and hydrophysical properties, strength and deformation parametres.
- Requirements:
-
No prerequisites
- Syllabus of lectures:
-
1 - Introduction, laboratory equipments, safety rules in laboratory, course works systém
2 - Densities, determination of degree of saturation
3 - Particle size distribution: sieve analysis, sedimentary method
4 - Atterberg limits: liquid limit - cone and Cassagrande method, plasticity limit
5 - Proctor standard test
6 - Deformation and strength characteristics: oedometric modulus, compressibility, uniaxial strength
7 - Shear parametres, permeability
8 - Hydrophysical properties: water absorptivity, capilarity, swelling, swell index
9 - Strength parametres: tension, tension under bending, shear, axiator tests, triaxial test
10 - Abrasivity - Böhm apparatus, Termophysical properties
11, 12 - Non destructive testing - Schmidt method, Poldi method, in-situ sampling (the Josef underground facility)
13 - Strain, stress detection - laboratory, in-situ, thermometers, instrumentation (the Josef underground facility)
