No longer offered. It’s in Waterloo’s scanned calendars from 1964–65 to 1966–67 (before that, 1963–64 used the number for Geology for Engineers); the 1995–96 to 2023–24 calendars are on ucalendar.
The type and occurence of earth materials used in civil engineering design and construction. Minerals: particularly clay mineralogy. Rocks: types, structural geology, weathering processes. Soil: identification and classification, index properties, density, compaction, structure, consistency. Soil deposits: form, nature, origin. Aggregates occurence, properties.
As printed in the 1964–65 to 1966–67 calendars, read by OCR; the scanned page is the original.

Another title: Geology for Engineers, probably a different course under the same number (or a misread scan).
An introductory course in geology, with emphasis on topics particularly related to civil engineering; mineralogy (particularly clay mincralogy), petrology, aggregates, structural geology, geomorphology (especially glacial geology), and ground water. Laboratory work will include the identification of minerals and rocks and the study of the use of geological maps for engineering purposes. Weather permitting, field trips may be undertaken in addition to the laboratory sessions.
3 lectures, 3 hours laboratory alternate weeks, one term.
