Learning objectives
Acquisition of knowledge and skills for integrated geotechnical design of geotechnical structures
Learning outcomes
Defining a geotechnical problem, planning geotechnical exploration works, analysis and interpretation of geotechnical exploration works, determination of characteristic geotechnical model of foundation soil, selection of relevant parameters for calculation based on exploration works, selection of appropriate design solution for given problem, analysis and evaluation of numerical modeling results, evaluation and verification of the selected solution for limit states of bearing capacity and usability, selection of execution technology for the selected project solution, preparation of the complete project (technical description, technical conditions, calculations, drawings, bill of quantities and estimate of works) of the selected project solution.
Content

Evaluation and grading
The independent annual assignment is defended during the semester in terms of lectures, exercises or consultations. The condition for taking the colloquium is the defended annual task with the part of the material belonging to it. Students who do not pass the colloquia during the semester, take the integral part of the exam, scored by the total number of points of both colloquia. Each of the tests is considered successful if the student achieves a minimum of 51% of the points provided for the knowledge test. The table below shows the percentages that can be won for individual activities and knowledge tests.
Specific remarks
The condition for taking the exam is that the annual task has been done and defended. If a student makes more than 3 absences, he is obliged to re-enroll the subject
