BIM – AN APPLICATION IN GEOTECHNICAL ENGINEERING
BIM model represents a significant step forward within the frame of the overall process of construction. This new approach goes from the assumption that up to date praxis, which is represented by different sets of 2D or 3D drawings of drawings, technical reports and calculations does not cover all problems of the above mentioned overall process of ...

Judgement in geotechnical engineering practice [PDF]
Professional judgement is the basis for many of the decisions taken by geotechnical engineers to make progress in the design, execution and works supervision. Judgment is a mandatory component of any engineering achievement, essential to assess the various uncertainties that inevitably affect engineering practice.

Dimensional analysis for geotechnical engineers [PDF]
Dimensional analysis is an important tool for engineers, aiding the design of experiments and concise expression of the results generated by them. The dimensionless groups, which are the output of a successful dimensional analysis, are usually developed via Buckingham's ‘Pi’ theorem. Because this alone is a necessary, but not sufficient, condition for

Applications of Microbial Processes in Geotechnical Engineering [PDF]
Over the last 10-15 years, a new field of "biogeotechnics" has emerged as geotechnical engineers seek to find ground improvement technologies which have the potential to be lower carbon, more ecologically friendly, and more cost-effective than existing practices.
