Détails du cours
• Fundamentals of Retaining Wall Design: An overview of the key principles and best practices for designing resilient retaining walls. This unit covers the primary forces that act on retaining walls, including soil pressure, water pressure, and surcharges, and the different types of retaining wall systems, such as gravity walls, cantilever walls, and anchored walls.
• Geotechnical Site Investigation: This unit focuses on the importance of conducting a thorough geotechnical site investigation to gather data on the soil and groundwater conditions at the site. It covers the different methods used for subsurface exploration, such as drilling, probing, and excavating, and the various laboratory tests used to determine the soil properties.
• Design Methodologies: This unit explores the different design methodologies used in the analysis and design of retaining walls, such as the limit equilibrium method, the finite element method, and the method of slices. It also covers the different design codes and standards, such as the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) and the European Standard EN 1997.
• Material Selection: This unit examines the various materials used in the construction of retaining walls, including concrete, masonry, steel, and timber. It covers the advantages and disadvantages of each material, as well as the design considerations for each material, such as strength, durability, and sustainability.
• Construction Techniques: This unit focuses on the best practices for constructing resilient retaining walls, including site preparation, foundation design, wall construction, and drainage. It also covers the different construction methods, such as cast-in-place concrete, precast concrete, and masonry.
• Quality Assurance and Control: This unit emphasizes the importance of quality assurance and control in the construction of resilient retaining walls, including the inspection and testing of materials, workmanship, and construction processes. It also covers the different methods
