Geotechnical Engineering 12 PDH Discount Package 2
Courses in this Package
Geotechnical Engineering: Earth Retaining Structures (G06-002)
Geotechnical Engineering: Slope Stability (G06-001)
This online engineering PDH course, as a part of Geotechnical Engineering Series, covers basic theories, engineering analyses, and practical approaches for design of retaining structures.
As a special case of an earthen slope with a truncated toe, earth retaining structure is used to hold back the earth and to maintain a vertical or near vertical elevation difference of the ground surface, for the benefit of saving space.
This 6 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 earth retaining structures.
This PE continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:
- Understanding the general approach to design of retaining structures
- Learning about the various types of earth retaining structures and the significant development since 1970
- Learning about the analytical methods involving active, at-rest, and passive lateral earth pressures
- Understanding the practical design approaches for checking retaining wall performances against overturning, sliding, bearing capacity, and global stability
In this professional engineering CEU course, you need to review Chapter 10, Earth Retaining Structures of the Federal Highway Administration "Reference Manual Volume II, SOILS {C}AND FOUNDATIONS", Publication No. FHWA NHI-06-089.

This online engineering PDH course, as a part of Geotechnical Engineering Series, covers basic theories, engineering evaluations, and practical approaches for design and mitigation of earthen slopes.
Fill and cut earthen slopes are indispensable in accommodating elevation changes for ground surface structures. To assure stable grounds for those structures, slopes themselves must be stable enough with required safety margins.
This 6 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 mitigation of earthern slopes.
This PE continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:
- Understanding the general approach to slope stability analysis
- Learning about soil stability analytical methods and applications including assessment of computer software
- Learning about the practical methods for slope stability investigation, assessment, and reinforcement
In this professional engineering CEU course, you need to review Chapter 6, Slope Stability of the Federal Highway Administration "Reference Manual Volume I, SOILS {C}AND FOUNDATIONS", Publication No. FHWA NHI-06-088.
