Geotechnical Engineering
Geotechnical engineering is the art of characterising the ground,
taking account of any liquids, gases or voids that it contains, on a
variety of scales and predicting its behaviour both natural and in
interaction with human activity.
Geotechnical engineering therefore serves many masters, most
notably the disciplines of civil and structural engineering, the
extractive and resource industries and those concerned with the
