Course Description

For safety of the structure and cost optimisation, appropriate geotechnical investigation is extremely important. Apart from definite statistics, it can be said that the geotechnical failures are one of the major causes for collapse of the structures. In the typical fast track projects, sometimes proper interface is not carried out between geotechnical engineer and structural engineer which may affect adversely the major goals of engineering, i.e. safety of the structure and cost optimisation. Also, the project may get delayed substantially due to inappropriate soil investigation or may be due to lack of interface between geotechnical engineer and structural engineer.

Course Objectives

  • Understanding metro rail dynamics
  • Learning about soil-structure interaction
  • Discussing railway alignment design and geometry with soil investigations.
  • Understand the relationship between soil types and boring methods of tunnels.
  • Important key informations between Soil investigations and Railway/ Metro Project Design

Who Should Attend?

  • Maintenance and facilities staff
  • Engineers
  • Supervisors
  • Managers
