Professional Certificate of Competency in Geotechnical Monitoring and Structural Instrumentation
Industry TrainingThe land on which structures are built exhibits variations in its load-bearing characteristics, necessitating testing for long-term performance. Therefore, the science of geotechnical studies has assumed great importance in evaluating actual versus designed performance.
This course introduces instruments and methods used in geotechnical analysis, discusses the processing, presentation, and interpretation of monitoring data, procedures for forensic geotechnical investigation, and techniques for ground improvement through case studies. It also explores the usage of these instruments in studying the behavior of structural elements.
After completing this course, you will be able to:
- Recommend suitable instruments and methods used for different types of geotechnical investigations.
- Recommend suitable instruments and methods used for varies structure health monitoring of load, strain, strain, etc.
- Process, present and interpret of monitoring data.
- Foresee the required parameters in geotechnical monitoring and required action for improvement of the ground.
