Course Description

This course provides a practical introduction to groundworks, covering preparation before groundworks, interpreting geotechnical reports, embedded and non-embedded retaining wall systems, retaining wall construction steps, reading embedded retaining wall drawings, earthworks preparation, blinding layers, foundation types, and slab-on-ground types..

It helps construction teams understand how groundworks, retaining walls, foundations, and slab-on-ground systems are planned, sequenced, interpreted, and checked on site to improve construction coordination, and reduce ground-related risks.
