CE8491 SOIL MECHANICS
OBJECTIVE:
To impart knowledge to classify the soil based on index properties and to assess their engineering properties based on the classification. To familiarize the students about the fundamental concepts of compaction, flow through soil, stress transformation, stressdistribution, consolidation and shear strength of soils. To impart knowledge of design of
both finite and infinite slopes.
History – formation and types of soil – composition -Index properties – clay mineralogy structural arrangement of grains – description – Classification – BIS – US – phase relationship – Compaction – theory – laboratory and field technology – field Compaction method – factors influencing compaction.
Soil – water – Static pressure in water – Effective stress concepts in soils – Capillary phenomena–– Permeability – Darcy’s law – Determination of Permeability – Laboratory Determination (Constant head and falling head methods) and field measurement pumping out in unconfined and confined aquifer – Factors influencing permeability of soils – Seepage – Two dimensional flow –Laplace’s equation – Introduction to flow nets – Simple problems Sheet pile and wier.
Stress distribution in homogeneous and isotropic medium – Boussines of theory – (Point load, Line load and udl) Use of Newmarks influence chart –Components of settlement – Immediate and consolidation settlement – Factors influencing settlement – Terzaghi’s one dimensional consolidation theory – Computation of rate of settlement. – √t and log t methods. e-log p relationship consolidation settlement N-C clays – O.C clays – Computation.
