Buildings & Civils - Geotechnical - Develop Conceptual Ground Models

Course Description

<p>This eLearning forms part of the Geotechnics Training Programme focusing on Retaining Walls. This module provides an overview of different types of<br /> retaining walls and their failure modes.<br /> The content will not give detailed guidance on structural inspections but will provide basic information and signpost relevant documents and standards.&nbsp;<br /> It also provides an understanding of the principles of retaining wall design, but it does not on its own lead to competence in designing a retaining wall or signing off a design done by others.</p>

Buildings & Civils - Geotechnical - RSHI: Geometric Data Collection

Course Description

<p>The Rock Slope Hazard Index (RSHI): Geometric Data Collection module is the second of four pre-learning modules to the face to face RSHI course forming part of the Geotechnics Training Programme. This module covers the recording of the slope geometry as part of a Rock Slope Examination i.e. the rock slope and any associated slopes above or below, together with the position of rail infrastructure in relation to the slope. It should be viewed before attending the RSHI field training course.</p>

Audience

Rock Slope Examiners only who are attending the Rock Slope Hazard Index training course.

Buildings & Civils - Geotechnical - Rock Slope Examinations: Geotechnical Data

Course Description

<p>The Geotechnical Data module is the third of four pre-learning modules to the face to face Rock Slope Hazard Index course forming part of the Geotechnics Training Programme, looking at the rock slope examination process as detailed in NR/L3/CIV/065/Mod3 and NR/GN/CIV/065/Mod3. This module covers the recording of geotechnical data i.e., rock material data, rock discontinuity data, potential failure modes, frequencies, and sizes, and groundwater and surface water observations. It provides foundational knowledge upon which fieldwork will build.</p>
