The general purpose of this Website is to contribute to the development of geotechnical understanding in Senegal and to allow its users to get more information about our discipline from any part of the world.  Engineering Geology and Geotechnical Engineering have been significant and major parts of Engineering since they were introduced in the early 1920s by Karl Terzaghi (father of soil mechanics) as an integral discipline of Civil Engineering in the United States Higher Education system. The ongoing and continuing development of the discipline everywhere in the world has made it one of the engineers’ prestigious and popular fields of interest in Engineering Schools. It is the aim of this website  to enable engineers in our developing countries to share this enthusiasm and better appreciate Geotechnical Engineering and Geo-technology. This Website will offer users the opportunity to develop their skills by access to the important free database available worldwide. Another purpose of this website will be to facilitate engineer's exchange of information and experience through the mailing list database. There will be no language restrictions; geotech is an open free language website devoted to our region with only one aim: the development of Geotechnical and Environmental Engineering. In this website we shall also perform comparison between techniques for the external design of structures. In this sense, it will show users the possibilities engineers have to improve living conditions. The ultimate goal of this website is to launch a Geotechnical Engineering Electronic Journal (GeoEJ). This Journal will be an open forum for Engineers, Higher Education teachers, and Researchers to share their works in the field of Civil, Geological and Environmental Engineering.
