Outline and Purpose of the Course | The aim is to learn mechanics, material properties and treatment of soil and concrete. | |||
Course Goals |
To design a mix proportion of concrete. To understand the classification of soil and to be able to calculate various basic material properties. To understand the mechanism of soil deformation and to be able to calculate the settlement due to the deformation. To understand the flow of water in soil and to be able to predict it. |

Evaluation Methods and Policy |
【Assessment method】 Determined based on the report (20 points) and the end-of-semester exam (80 points). A mid-term exam may not be administered due to timetabling issues. 【Assessment criteria】 Assessment criteria and policy are drawn from "Assessment criteria and policy" in the current version of the Faculty of Agriculture Student Handbook. |
