A great day of talking #Geotechnics and #Structures on the banks of the Tyne Engineering at Newcastle
Warming up for the MSc in Geotechnical and Geological Engineering | Newcastle University residential field trip with a look over Geotechnics and Structures (GEST) Engineering at Newcastle’s full scale research embankment and a trip down the Yorkshire coast looking at slope stability in glacial tills.
Day 1 of our MSc in Geotechnical and Geological Engineering | Newcastle University field trip to the south of France. Assessing the Malpasset dam failure. Looking at how the dam interacted with the rock mass. Geotechnics and Structures (GEST) Engineering at Newcastle
Day 2 of our MSc in Geotechnical and Geological Engineering | Newcastle University international field trip and it’s all about rock mass classification in the context of tunnels. How big a span is feasible? Geotechnics and Structures (GEST) Engineering at Newcastle
Day 3 of our MSc in Geotechnical and Geological Engineering | Newcastle University field trip and we are mapping discontinuities with a view to assessing stability of the road cutting. Newcastle University Geotechnics and Structures (GEST) Engineering at Newcastle
Day 4 of the MSc in Geotechnical and Geological Engineering | Newcastle University and it’s been a hot day mapping a landslide. Students learn to identify and record the clues showing past, continuing and potential for future movement in the slope. Geotechnics and Structures (GEST) Engineering at Newcastle
Day 5 of the MSc in Geotechnical and Geological Engineering | Newcastle University field trip and we are picking up on lessons learned yesterday to map another very large landslide with some different features and issues. Geotechnics and Structures (GEST) Engineering at Newcastle
Day 6 of the MSc in Geotechnical and Geological Engineering field trip to France and we are using our field data collection skills to assess the stability of a rock slope with some interesting features. Plus time to squeeze in one more dam. Geotechnics and Structures (GEST) Engineering at Newcastle
Welcome to prospective students and parents attending our September Open Day! A full atrium for our first Engineering session in the Stephenson Building this morning 😀 #nclvisit Faculty of Science, Agriculture & Engineering
Our CEO Nichola Tasker is touring the North East visiting universities and colleges - including 2023 Prize-winners Newcastle University and their flagship water security research programme. Pictured here with Newcastle professors Richard Dawson FREng and Claire Walsh. #QAPrizes
