For
engineering purposes, soil is defined as the uncemented aggregate of mineral
grains and decayed organic matter (solid particles) with liquid and gas in the
empty spaces between the solid particles. Soil is used as a construction material
in various civil engineering projects, and it supports structural foundations.
Thus, civil engineers must study the properties of soil, such as its origin,
grain-size distribution, ability to drain water, compressibility, shear
strength, and load-bearing capacity. Soil mechanics is the branch of science
that deals with the study of the physical properties of soil and the behavior
of soil masses subjected to various types of forces. Soils engineering is the
application of the principles of soil mechanics to practical problems.
Geotechnical engineering is the subdiscipline of civil engineering that
involves natural materials found close to the surface of the earth. It includes
the application of the principles of soil mechanics and rock mechanics to the design
of foundations, retaining structures, and earth structures.
