1.0 Introduction | Soil Mechanics & Engineering Geology

This lecture is a part of a lecture series given by Ms Sakshi on Soil Mechanics and Engineering Geology for B.tech (Civil Engineering) students at MS Institute.
Description
in this video we will learn the basics of soil mechanics and engineering geology, which are fundamental subjects in civil engineering

soil mechanics deals with the study of soil properties, behavior, and how it interacts with structures. it includes understanding types of soil, their formation, and characteristics such as strength, permeability, and compressibility

engineering geology, on the other hand, focuses on the application of geological knowledge to civil engineering problems. it helps in identifying suitable construction sites, understanding rock formations, fault lines, and natural hazards like landslides and earthquakes

together, these subjects help engineers make informed decisions for designing safe and stable structures
