Goal

Ability to analyze engineering and geological conditions for the purpose of further use of this material at the construction site.

Objective

Consolidation of theoretical knowledge of the discipline. i.e. acquaintance with the properties of soils and their application in construction, familiarity with the regulatory and reference literature.

Learning outcome: knowledge and understanding

Mastery of basic knowledge in the field of natural science disciplines, contributing to the formation of a highly educated person with a broad outlook and culture of thinking.

Learning outcome: applying knowledge and understanding

Ability to independently apply methods and means of knowledge in solving a wide range of problems related to the design of foundations and foundations.

Learning outcome: formation of judgments

To know the requirements for the content and nature of work in modern production, the main occupations of the road industry, in the design, construction and operation of roads.

Learning outcome: communicative abilities

To conduct teaching and educational work. The ability to apply standard methods of calculation of elements and units of building structures, to perform design work and draw up design and technological documentation according to standards, technical conditions and other regulatory documents, including the use of computer-aided design.

Learning outcome: learning skills or learning abilities

Have an understanding of the state of basic scientific and technical problems, perspectives and interconnections of the development of professional training, as well as related areas of professional activity. Carry out communication in the professional environment and in society as a whole, including in a foreign language; analyze existing and develop independently technical documentation; clearly state and defend the results of complex engineering activities in the enterprises of construction and installation complex and in industry research organizations.

Teaching methods

- Traditional technologies are provided for teaching the discipline: classroom and independent work of students. Lecture course is presented in multimedia form. When presenting lecture material at the beginning and at the end of the lecture motivational speech is used. Text, audio and video information, graphs, tables etc. are used in the lecture-presentation. Laboratory classes are held in a laboratory equipped with modern soil testing equipment.

Assessment of the student's knowledge

Teacher oversees various tasks related to ongoing assessment and determines students' current performance twice during each academic period. Ratings 1 and 2 are formulated based on the outcomes of this ongoing assessment. The student's learning achievements are assessed using a 100-point scale, and the final grades P1 and P2 are calculated as the average of their ongoing performance evaluations. The teacher evaluates the student's work throughout the academic period in alignment with the assignment submission schedule for the discipline. The assessment system may incorporate a mix of written and oral, group and individual formats.

Period	Type of task	Total
1 rating	Protection of laboratory works 1 to 5	0-100
	Minerals and rocks. Minerals.
	Seismic phenomena. Earthquakes and their types.
	Classification of groundwater. П
	Rubric control
2 rating	Protection of laboratory works from 5 to 8.	0-100
	The composition and scope of engineering and geological surveys.
	Soil Mechanics.
	Water permeability of soils, the law of laminar filtration.
	Foundations and Foundations.
	Rubric control
Total control	Exam	0-100

The evaluating policy of learning outcomes by work type

Type of task	90-100	70-89	50-69	0-49
Type of task	Excellent	Good	Satisfactory	Unsatisfactory

Evaluation form

The student's final grade in the course is calculated on a 100 point grading scale, it includes:

40% of the examination result;
60% of current control result.

The final grade is calculated by the formula:

FG = 0,6	MT₁+MT₂	+0,4E
	2

Where Midterm 1, Midterm 2are digital equivalents of the grades of Midterm 1 and 2;

E is a digital equivalent of the exam grade.

Final alphabetical grade and its equivalent in points:

The letter grading system for students' academic achievements, corresponding to the numerical equivalent on a four-point scale:

Alphabetical grade	Numerical value	Points (%)	Traditional grade
A	4.0	95-100	Excellent
A-	3.67	90-94	Excellent
B+	3.33	85-89	Good
B	3.0	80-84
B-	2.67	75-79
C+	2.33	70-74
C	2.0	65-69	Satisfactory
C-	1.67	60-64
D+	1.33	55-59
D	1.0	50-54
FX	0.5	25-49	Unsatisfactory
F	0	0-24	Unsatisfactory
