This course covers the OSHA Excavation Standard and safety and health aspects of excavation and trenching. Course topics include practical soil mechanics and its relationship to the stability of ...

When Karl von Terzaghi applied the effective stress principle in the soil mechanics theory, the strength and volumetric behavior of saturated soils could be clearly understood and general constitutive ...

The role of vegetation in enhancing soil stability and mediating root mechanics has garnered substantial attention in recent years. Plants contribute to slope stability by reinforcing the soil through ...
