Activities:

The Geotechnical Engineering Research Laboratory carries out teaching activities, research and third parties. The laboratory is equipped with equipment for carrying out standard tests and advanced research tests in the field of geotechnical engineering. The activities carried out by the laboratory are aimed at characterizing the soils by defining the main physical characteristics, mechanical and hydraulic necessary for the design of civil and environmental engineering interventions, with particular reference to sustainable building management, defense of the territory and environmental protection.
