In activity, students connect the rock cycle to real-world geomechanics using simple household materials. Using simple household materials, this demonstration shows: • Granular flow vs. particle interlocking • The jamming phenomenon and soil arching • Solid-like vs. fluid-like behaviour • Granular dilation • Cohesive soil resistance and bonding • How soil type influences ground stability By connecting the rock cycle to soil mechanics, students see how geology influences foundation design, infrastructure stability, and real-world engineering decisions.
