👉 Soil engineering is a multidisciplinary field that applies principles of civil engineering, geotechnical science, and environmental management to design, construct, and maintain soil-based structures and systems. It involves the modification and stabilization of soil properties to ensure they can safely support various applications, such as construction, agriculture, and environmental remediation. Techniques in soil engineering include compaction, grouting, soil reinforcement with geogrids or geotextiles, and the use of soil amendments to improve strength, permeability, and durability. By understanding soil behavior under different conditions, engineers can mitigate risks associated with soil instability, erosion, and settlement, ensuring the longevity and safety of structures built on or within the soil.
