ENGR 321 - Soil Mechanics

Credits: 3

Physical and index properties of soil, soil classification, soil-water interaction, stresses, settlement, and shear strength will be studied. Laboratory experiments will include Atterberg Limits, grain size analysis, shear strength, consolidation, and Proctor tests. Prerequisite(s): ENGR 355. Lecture-Lab (ex: 3-1 means 3 hrs lecture and 1 hr lab): (2-3)
