geotehnilisi

Geotehnilisi, also known as geotechnical engineering, is a branch of civil engineering that focuses on the behavior of earth materials. It encompasses the study of soil mechanics, rock mechanics, and their interaction with structures and the natural environment. Geotechnical engineers are responsible for designing foundations, retaining structures, tunnels, slopes, and other earthworks. They analyze soil properties, such as density, permeability, and shear strength, to determine the stability and load-bearing capacity of the ground. This information is crucial for ensuring the safety and longevity of buildings, bridges, dams, and other infrastructure. Geotehnilisi also involves the use of various testing methods, including in-situ and laboratory tests, to assess soil and rock conditions. Additionally, geotechnical engineers may employ numerical modeling and analytical techniques to predict the behavior of soil and rock under different loading conditions. Their work plays a vital role in mitigating geohazards, such as landslides and earthquakes, and in the sustainable development of infrastructure.
