Record Type: concept
geotechnical engineering (civil engineering, engineering, ... Disciplines (hierarchy name))

 

Note: A branch of civil engineering which applies principles of rock and soil mechanics to the study of subsurface conditions. In a conservation context, geotechnical engineering is used in the monitoring and preservation of monuments and historic sites.
