- To know the General features of the justification of the according facilities of this geological environment;
- know the mechanics of natural dispersed (finely crushed) bodies, as a theoretical basis for design of structures on natural and artificially improved soils.
- To know how to use a bearing capacity of soils, to accurately take into account the deformation of soil bases under the action of loads from the structures
- Be able to apply the most safe and economic foundations and foundations of buildings and structures.
