Discuss engineering properties of rocks.
PART C
Answer any two full questions, each carries 20 marks.
With neat diagram, describe folding in rocks. Write a note on the significance of
rock folding in engineering designs.
What are rock joints? How do they differ from geological faults?
Calculate the true dip directions tor a shale- coarse sandstone contact with strike
N130°.
What are contours? Draw a contour diagram representing 60m deep basinal
depression within a plateau land located at 120m height from msl. Note that, the
basin has a mound of 40m height at its center.
What are landslides’? Discuss the role human beings in accelerating landslides.
Discuss how structural contours help to deduce the subsurface structure of rock
sequences.
Discuss different engineering methods adopted to conserve river bank and flood
plain from frequent flood.
Discuss various coastal landforms and their strategies to protect them from
erosion.
