| Description | One element of the CIVCAL project
Web-based resources containing images, tables, texts and associated data on the construction of the Soil Nailing.
Prior to the establishment of the Geotechnical Engineering Office (GEO) in 1977, there was very limited geotechnical control over the slope formation and virtually no monitoring over the existing slopes in Hong Kong. Since then, the government launched a major investigation and assessment project to catalogue all the slopes in the territory.
Soil nailing can be described as a technique used to improve the properties of an insitu soil mass by the inclusion of slender unstressed reinforcement. This process is illustrated in this module with examples from Hong Kong Civil Engineering, construction, geotechnical, building site 1. Teachers can draw examples and illustrative material for lectures and demonstration. 2. Students can use the web-site for research and project work. All required plug-in downloadable from the site Designed for undergradute Civil and Building Engineering students. To enhance the learning and teaching of Civil and Building Engineering through ready access to virtual experiences on a variety of construction sites. 1. To enable virtual site visits. 2. To provide multi-media enhancement of teaching and learning material. 3. To provide supplementary material for courses in Civil and Building Engineering. 4. To provide resource material for students conducting independent studies. |
