    The document is an internal assessment test for a geotechnical engineering course. It contains 6 questions related to topics like settlement of foundations, bearing capacity, and failure mechanisms in soil. Students are asked to explain different types of settlement, estimate immediate settlement of a footing, list assumptions in Terzaghi analysis, calculate ultimate bearing capacity for different water table levels, distinguish between general and local shear failure, and size a square footing using Terzaghi analysis.
