No longer offered. It’s in Waterloo’s scanned calendars from 1964–65 to 1966–67 (before that, 1963–64 used the number for Foundations and Earth Structures); the 1995–96 to 2023–24 calendars are on ucalendar.
Hydrology and geomorphology as used in civil engineering planning, design and construction. Erosion, Hydrology: precipitation, evaporation, transpiration. Surface water: rivers and streams, oceans and shorelines. Subsurface water: classification, capillary water, frost action, permafrost, groundwater flow, artesian water, work of ground water, water supply. Glaciation: continental and valley, erosion, deposition, history. Earth movements due to gravity. Wind: erosion, transportation, deposition. Rock and soil exploration, surface and subsurface methods.
As printed in the 1964–65 to 1966–67 calendars, read by OCR; the scanned page is the original.

Another title: Foundations and Earth Structures, probably a different course under the same number (or a misread scan).
Soil investigation and surveys, shear strength-time relationships, flow nets, slope stability, earth dams, earth pressure theories, earth retaining structures, bearing capacity theories, bearing capacity and settlement with relation to shallow and deep foundations.
3 lectures, one term.
