Geotechnical Engineers are Equal Parts Engineer, Scientist, and Magician! Geotechnical Engineers study the many layers of soil and rock beneath our feet to allow us to build on, with, and in the earth ...

Pile group interaction during lateral loading reduces lateral resistance. Based on full-scale lateral pile group testing, the reduction is a function of pile spacing, row position and soil type.

Geotechnical engineering remains a cornerstone of civil infrastructure, addressing the stability, strength, and deformation behaviour of soil masses and their interaction with built structures. Recent ...

If you want to understand why some sandcastles are tall and have intricate structures while others are nearly shapeless lumps of sand, it helps to have a background in geotechnical engineering. As a ...

Adel Hanna: “When buildings collapse or lean, the problem usually isn’t the concrete. The problem is the ground.” Geotechnical engineers focus on the design and construction of foundations — among ...

North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) led a $176 million project to reduce congestion and improve access to the Piedmont Triad International Airport in Greensboro. Part of the project ...

Our research group is dedicated to advancing geotechnical engineering through the development of cutting-edge models and rigorous material testing, contributing to a deeper understanding of soil ...
