Course details

The Earthquake Geotechnical Engineering course focuses on the behavior of soil and foundations under seismic loading. It explains how earthquakes affect ground response, soil strength, and stability, and how these effects influence the performance of foundations, retaining structures, slopes, and earth dams. The course bridges geotechnical engineering principles with earthquake engineering concepts to address seismic safety of infrastructure.

The course emphasizes soil dynamics, site response analysis, and earthquake-induced ground failures. Learners gain insight into the interaction between seismic waves and soil layers and how geotechnical design can mitigate earthquake-related risks.
