| Objectives of the Course | |||||
| The chaotic structure of rock-carved structures is the geological and engineering structure of the rock mass in which they are located combined with their characteristics, these areas become more vulnerable to disasters. With this course, it is aimed to understand the geoengineering problems observed in rock-hewn spaces excavated in the historical period and in the current period, especially in weak rock masses, and to explain the solution projects that can be developed against different problems. | |||||
| Learning Outcomes | PO | MME | |
| The students who succeeded in this course: | |||
