This document discusses subsoil exploration, which involves collecting soil data through field and laboratory investigations to assess soil properties at a site. The main objectives are to determine the nature, depth, thickness, and extent of soil strata, as well as groundwater depth and properties. Exploration methods include direct techniques like test pits and borings, and indirect techniques like sounding tests and geophysical methods. Standard penetration tests are commonly used to determine properties of cohesionless soils by counting blows required to penetrate the soil. Corrections are applied to penetration values to account for overburden pressure and sample dilatancy.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

Acetabularia Information For Class 9 .docxvaibhavrinwa19
Acetabularia acetabulum is a single-celled green alga that in its vegetative state is morphologically differentiated into a basal rhizoid and an axially elongated stalk, which bears whorls of branching hairs. The single diploid nucleus resides in the rhizoid.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

2. Sub soil Exploration???
The process of collection soil data for the
assessment soil properties at a site through
series of laboratory and field investigation is
collectively called Sub-soil Exploration
Enables the engineers to draw soil profile
indicating the sequence of soil strata and the
properties of soil involved.
3. Main Objectives
Determination of
Nature of Soil deposit
Depth and Thickness of soil strata
Horizontal extent of soil deposit
Depth of GWT and its fluctuations
Engineering properties of soil
Insitu soil properties
Collection of soil and rock sample
4. Methods of soil Exploration
Exploration methods
Direct Methods Semi Direct In Direct Methods
Test pits, Trial
pits, Trenches
Borings
•Auger
•Auger and shell
•Wash Boring
•Percussion
drilling
•Rotary Drilling
Sounding or
penetration
Tests and
Geophysical
methods
5. Test pits
Depth upto 3m
Uneconomical at greater depths.
Supports are required at greater depths.
Especially in case of weak strata
Problems with GWT and the same should be
lowered
Open type Exploration
Soils are investigated in natural condition
Soil samples are collected for determining
strength and Engineering properties
7. Boring
Drilling a hole into the soil strata upto
specified depth is known as boring
1. Auger boring
2. Auger and shell boring
3. Wash boring
4. Percussion drilling
5. Rotary drilling
8. Auger Boring
Drilling is made using a device called Soil
Auger
Power driven (upto 3 to 5m) and Hand
operated (Greater than 5m)
Advancement is made by drilling the auger by
simultaneous rotating and pressing it into the
soil
Dry and unsupported bore holes
When the auger gets filled with soil same, it is
taken out and the soil sample collected
10. Auger and Shell Boring
Casing is provided in case of weak strata
First the casing is driven and then the auger
Boring rig is used for power drivng (hand rig for
depth upto 25 m)
Soft rocks are broken using chisel bits
Sand pumps are used in the case of sandy soils.
Disadvantage:
Whenever the casing is to be extended, the auger
has to be withdrawn which hinders the quick
progress of the work.
12. Wash Boring
Below GWT. May not be used for soils mixed with gravel
and boulders
Initially, the hole is advanced for a short depth by using
an auger.
Then a casing pipe is pushed in and driven with a drop
weight. The driving may be with the aid of power.
A hollow drill bit is screwed to a hollow drill rod
connected to a rope passing over a pulley and
supported by a tripod.
Water jet under pressure is forced through the rod and
the bit into the hole.
This loosens the soil at the lower end and forces the
soil-water suspension upwards along the annular
13. This suspension is collected in a settling tank.
Soil particles are allowed to settle down and water
is allowed to overflow into a sump which is then
recirculated
Very disturbed sample is obtained. Hence cannot
be used for determining engineering properties.
whenever a soil sample is required, the chopping
bit is to be replaced by a sampler.
The change of the rate of progress and change of
colour of wash water indicate changes in soil
strata.
14. Percussion Drilling
A heavy drill bit called ‘churn bit’ is suspended
from a drill rod or a cable and is driven by
repeated blows.
Water is added to facilitate the breaking of stiff
soil or rock.
The slurry of the pulverised material is bailed out
at intervals.
Disadvantages
Cannot be used in loose sand and is slow in
plastic clay.
The formation gets badly disturbed by impact.
15. Rotary Drilling
Suitable for rock formations.
A drill bit, fixed to the lower end of a drill rod, is
rotated
by power while being kept in firm contact with the
hole.
Drilling fluid or bentonite slurry is used under
pressure which brings up the cuttings to the
surface.
Even rock cores may be obtained by using
suitable diamond drill bits.
Disadvantage
Not used in porous deposits as the consumption
of drilling fluid would be high.
17. SPT “IS: 2131-1986—
Standard Penetration Test”.
Generally used for cohesionless soils
To determine relative density , angle of
shearing resistance, UCC
A bore hole is made using drilling tools and a
hammer of weight 63.5 falling from the height
of 750 mm at the rate of 30 blows/minute
After reaching the specified depth, the drilling
tool is replaced by a split spoon sampler to
collect soil sample.
18. First 150 mm penetration is taken as seating
drive and the no. of blows required for that
penetration is discarded
No of blows required for next 300mm
penetration after seating drive is taken as
standard penetration number (N)
No of blows greater than 50 are taken as
refusal and the test is discontinued
Corrections are applied to the observed N
value
19. Correction to N value
Dilatancy Correction
Overburden correction
Of these, overburden correction is applied
first and to that corrected value, dilatancy
Correction is applied
20. Dilatancy Correction
Due to the presence of fine sand and silt
below the water table, negative pore pressure
develops which increases, the observed N
value. Hence correction is applied. (If N’<15 or
N=15 , N’ = N)
21. Over burden correction
Soils having the same relative density will show
higher N value at greater depth due to presence
of over burden.
Cohesionless soils are greatly affected by
confining pressure. Hence N value is corrected .σ
