PRACTICE PROMPT
Use this fictional setting to practise clear reasoning. It is not an assessment or institution paper.
The setting
A site with a former quarry backfilled to 12 m with unknown material.
Your task
Propose a foundation strategy and the investigation needed.
What a useful response would show
Investigation proposed before a solution is committed to.
Reflect afterwards
- What assumption mattered most?
- What would you check before using this on a real project?
- Could another engineer follow your recommendation?
