Welcome to the comprehensive Site Investigation course, unfolding across four enlightening modules crafted to provide learners with a profound understanding of the complex world beneath our feet. In Module 1, participants will delve into diverse site investigation types, methods, and codal provisions, gaining practical insights to adeptly select drilling and sampling approaches tailored to specific soil conditions. Module 2 will take learners on an exploration of field tests, including SPT, SCPT, DCPT, and Plate Load Tests, fostering proficiency in conducting these tests and providing a nuanced understanding of alternative methods such as Vane Shear Test and Pressuremeter Tests. In Module 3, learners will unravel the essentials of site investigation reports, mastering the analysis of crucial data while delving into the intricacies of liquefaction susceptibility and mitigation methods. Finally, Module 4 will immerse learners in a Virtual Laboratory for soil testing, where they will acquire hands-on skills in conducting tests like liquid limit, plastic limit, compaction, shear strength, consolidation, and permeability—essential tools for their journey into the realm of site investigation and engineering applications.
