1、 UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH CHINACollege:The College of Civil EngineeringName:Fanhua Jiang(姜繁华)Class: Class 2, Grade 2011,Geotechnical Engineering No.:20114680213Geotechnical EngineeringWe human have lived in this world for almost hundreds of millions of years. The land of the earth is what human need to l

2、ive on. We farm on it, graze on it, live on it. And our ancestor has built their houses according to their living experiences, which can reflect our ancestors intelligence. The Egypt has pyramid, the India has Taj Mahmal, the Ancient Babylon has Garden in The Air and our China has the Great Wall, et

3、c. As one of the Four Great Ancient Civilizations our ancestor had almost completed the technique of pile foundation in the Ming dynasty. Pile foundation is one of our works and it is the foundation of stability of building. The Leaning Tower of Pisa is one of the remarkable pile foundation works. W

4、hen it was built, the engineers couldnt make sure of the condition of the soil under the ground. By the improvement of the technique, the scientists and engineers pay increasingly attention to the geotechnical engineering. Nowadays, we have a lot of ways to test the conditions of the soil to guarant

5、ee the buildings security and safety. During the time of Anti-Japanese War, our army took tactics of tunnel warfare, it also shows the Chinese intelligence of architectural design. Geotechnical engineering is one of the branches of the civil engineering. By contrast, the other subjects are easier to

6、 master, so many are not willing to take this as their major. Though this major is so arduous and it seems not in popular demand, I still think it has the most potential to develop. When we see many buildings being built in our city, we should not just notice the outside of these buildings, we shoul

7、d see through the appearance to the essence, the footing of these buildings is vital to the building. The significance of the footing means the most challenging works of all the construction. Before the footing construction, the condition of the underground is invisible, so before we start our works

8、, we have to use high-tech as well as our experience to analyze if the soil is suitable to use or not. In addition, we can also apply our knowledge to the construction of the subway tunnel etc. China, as a developing country, still has to do lots of engineering project, the geotechnical engineer mus

9、t be the most indispensable person in this field. Because of the work environment, in our college it becomes the most unwelcome major. But we are very proud that the teachers here are very qualified and have a breadth of knowledge. Above all, employment rate of this major is higher and higher, the technique also plays an increasingly important role in our national infrastructure projects and military construction. So we have to advertise our major positively to eliminate the negative message of our
