Soil Mechanics 12 PDH Discount Package 1
Courses in this Package
Soil Mechanics: Description and Classification (G04-002)
Soil Mechanics: Subsurface Exploration (G08-001)
This online engineering PDH course, as a part of soil mechanics series, covers basic standards in soil description and classification. Human beings have been building structures on, in, and with soils for centuries, and the principles of soil mechanics have been used for a long time, whether they were theorized or not.
Soil consists of three phases of solid, liquid and gas. Because of the three-phase composition, soils exhibit different appearances and forms. A required task in geotechnical engineering is to describe and classify the soils for ensuing engineering evaluations in design and construction.
This 4 PDH online course is applicable to geotechnical, civil, mining, structural, and environmental engineers, as well as design and construction personnel involved with the planning, design, and construction of building structures on, in, and with soils.
This PE continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:
- Learning about the basic soil description terminologies
- Learning about the basics and commonly used standards in soil classification
- Understanding the major engineering characteristics of the main soil groups
In this professional engineering CEU course, you need to review Chapter 4, Engineering Description, Classification and Characteristics of Soils and Rocks of the Federal Highway Administration "Reference Manual Volume I, SOILS {C}AND FOUNDATIONS", Publication No. FHWA NHI-06-088.

This online engineering PDH course, as a part of soil mechanics series, covers basics of planning and execution of subsurface exploration.
To design a cost-effective structural foundation for a structure to interact favorably with the soil on which it rests, a site- and project-specific subsurface model must be developed. Subsurface exploration is the first step in building subsurface model.
This 8 PDH online course is applicable to geotechnical, civil, mining, structural, and environmental engineers, as well as design and construction personnel involved with the planning, design, and construction of building structures on, in, and with soils.
This PE continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:
- Understanding the principles and state-of-practice of subsurface exploration
- Learning how to plan and execute a:
- site-specific subsurface exploration program
- project-specific subsurface exploration program
- Learning about the practical guidelines for:
- selecting proper sampling methods
- selecting proper field-testing methods
In this professional engineering CEU course, you need to review Chapter 3, Subsurface Explorations of the Federal Highway Administration "Reference Manual Volume I, SOILS {C}AND FOUNDATIONS", Publication No. FHWA NHI-06-088.
