November 5th, 2024 | Depot Campus
The School of Civil and Environmental Engineering invites all students to attend the Drilling Demo Day. This will be a unique opportunity to gain hands-on experience in geotechnical investigation techniques used to inform soil analysis and foundation design.
This event offers participants the chance to observe a Standard Penetration Test (SPT) sample recovery in action, guided by experts in the field. It’s an excellent opportunity to apply classroom knowledge to real-world scenarios and develop practical skills essential for future engineers.
