• Describe the 3 different "engineering rock types" as per Goodman's classification system (1989). s). Classify a rock according to Goodman's criteria based on its geologic name for the following rocks: granite, sandstone, mudstone, schist, slate, and limestone. • Explain why rock mass classification systems are used in practice. Given a rock mass description, apply a rock mass classification system (the RMR system) to infer rock properties and engineering characteristics of the rock mass. • Be familiar with the themes, concepts, and ideas of the book Too High and Too Steep, as presented to this class (in a virtual lecture) by the author David Williams. • Use fundamental principles of geotechnical engineering as outlined in this course (e.g., shear strength, dilatant and contractive soil behavior, hydraulic conductivity, geologic soil units, etc.) to explain the complex behavior of the Oso, Washington landslide.
