There are three main types of problems in geotechnical engineering: failure load problems, deformation problems, and flow problems. Each problem can be solved by performing experimental modeling, by doing theoretical modeling, or by using experience. One very important first step in solving a geotechnical engineering problem is to always start by making a drawing to scale of the problem. Two main types of laws are used to solve problems: fundamental laws and constitutive laws. A typical solution to the problem of finding a failure load (e.g., ultimate bearing capacity of a footing) or a failure moment (e.g., slope stability) is to use the limit equilibrium analysis. Numerical solutions typically require the use of a computer because of the complexity and amount of the mathematics involved. The finite difference method is very powerful in solving differential equations. Dimensional analysis is a very useful tool when dealing with mechanics problems.
