Welcome to Soil Engineering!
This course is designed to introduce you to the essential principles of soil mechanics and geotechnical engineering, which are foundational to civil engineering and construction. Soil is more than just the ground we walk on—it plays a critical role in the design and stability of every structure, from buildings and bridges to roads and dams. In this course, you will learn about the physical and mechanical properties of soils, methods of soil classification, permeability, shear strength, compaction, consolidation, and the behavior of soils under different loading conditions.

We will also explore the design and analysis of shallow and deep foundations, slope stability, and retaining structures. Through easy-to-follow lessons, visual explanations, and real-life case studies, you'll gain a clear understanding of how soil interacts with structures and the environment.

By the end of the course, you’ll have a strong foundation to apply soil engineering principles in academic projects and professional practice.
