BESPOKE, SPECIALIST TRAINING FACILITIES FOR GEOTECHNICAL COURSES
This course is aimed at geotechnical practitioners and engineers who are involved in foundation design recommendations and who are starting to carry out geotechnical design using EC7 approaches or who feel they would benefit from a refresher.
The course delegates should have a knowledge and basic understanding of soil mechanics and geotechnical design. They should have a degree in civil engineering and/or a Masters in engineering geology/geotechnics.
"Really good course. Good balance between practical and theory. Worked examples were important. Tutor was excellent with a great knowledge of the subject matter and a good training style and delivery."
