Realize that technology, although based on scientific knowledge, has as its primary objective to make design decisions and solve problems (quoting Von Karman: Scientists discover the world that exists; engineers create the world that never was).	A1 A2 A3 A4 A5	B1 B3 B7	C12	D1 D2 D3 D4 D5
To integrate the basic principle of rock and soil mechanics: the geotechnical engineer does not select the materials because it works into a natural context, and the influence of the variability of the input parameters is very relevant and has a very significant influence on the final results.
