La géotechnique est une étude de résistance des sols et des sous-sols (mécanique des sols), le plus souvent avant la construction d'un bâtiment ou d'un port pour éviter les risques d'écroulement et des glissements de terrains. Pour cela, il faut procédés aux investigations géotechniques (essais géotechniques) comme :

Essais in situ

- Exécution de sondages carottés.

- Exécution des essais de pénétration dynamique, selon les règles standards du « SPT » pour des sols pulvérulents.

  Essais en laboratoire

- Analyse granulométrique.

- Mesure des densités humides et sèche.

- Mesures de la teneur en eau naturelle.

- Détermination des limites d’ATTERBERG.

- Essai de compression pour les échantillons durs.

- Essais de cisaillement à la boite de  CASAGRANDE.
