Involves the application of scientific methods and engineering principles to the acquisition, interpretation, and use of knowledge about earth materials for the design and construction of civil engineering structures. It’s an essential practice in ensuring stability, safety, and sustainability in projects like foundations, embankments, and tunnels.
