5. Time (in hours) per week For example Theory: 2 hours Practical: 3 hours
6. A. lecture hours Thursday : 8:30 AM - 2:30 PM and Wednesday : 8:30AM - 2:30PM
B. Office hours Wednesday: 8:30AM – 1:30 PM
7. Course code HE301
8. Teacher's academic profile
Second year and my education and Academic certificates as below M.Sc. Civil Engineering (Highway)2017 B.SC. Civil Engineering 2012 Subject courses (Soil Mechanics, Asphalt Technology) Computer Software Programs (Microsoft (Word, Excel, Power point), and (AutoCAD, SPSS)
9. Keywords Soil Mechanics, Stresses, Shear,
10. Course overview: The Soil Mechanics have divided into two parts, theoretical and laboratory parts. Theoretical Surveying lectures will help students to learn and easily recognize of the Soil Mechanics such as weight- volume relationships how to learn about in most applications, the phases include solid particles, water and air. Water and air occupy voids between the solid particles. For Soil in particular, the physical relationship between the solid particles. Soil particle size, clay mineral, compaction, stresses in soil mass, shear stresses all of them related to density, optimum moisture content, maximum dry density, and remove soil according to work.
11. Course objective: The Soil Mechanics lectures will help students to learn and easily recognize of the soil traits, which it is relate to all of the highway and civil engineering works as the following: -To perform the Engineering soil surveys.
-To develop rational soil sampling devices and soil sampling methods.
To develop suitable soil testing devices and soil testing methods. -
-To collect and classify soils and their physical properties on the basis of fundamental knowledge of Soil Mechanics.
-To investigate the physical properties of soil and determine the coefficients to characterize these properties.

-To evaluate the soil test results and other applications as a construction material.
-To understand various factors such as static and dynamic loads, water and temperature.
12. Student's obligation
The students should be a viable during lecture time table when the student absent more Than the allowed hours the student will be dismissed. Students should be doing quizzes, practical reports, seasonal tests and final exams in order to able to collect required mark to success.
13. Forms of teaching During lecturing the data show is used for showing lecture notes using power point program while the white board is used for explanation and solving problems and using soil instruments in laboratory but in highway department don’t have this instruments. Using
video for practical soil.
14. Assessment scheme Overall final grade will be 100% Weight of each grading item will be as below. Exam 50% (25% theory + 10% practical). Home work, quizzes, report and attendance 10% + 10% + 5% Final Exam 40% (30% theory + 10% practical). Final grade over 100%
15. Student learning outcome: One basic and very important objective of study Soil Mechanics is: The Soil Mechanics lectures will help students to learn and easily recognize of the Soil
Mechanics, which it is relate to all of the civil engineering and highway engineering. 16. Course Reading List and References:
