The physical and mechanical properties of soils and rocks, as well as the rock discontinuities characteristics are examined and the suggested methods for their determination through laboratory and in situ techniques are analyzed. The exploratory boreholes are thoroughly described, while the in situ testing methods for geotechnical investigation purposes in technical works design are presented
The extensive knowledge of physical and mechanical behaviour of soils and rocks using laboratory and site investigation techniques for engineering works design and construction
