This article is to be added to an existing stub, so it is okay that it does not have a separate title. The contents will be added on to the contents of the stub. I think that this is good information to add to the stub.

The information is descriptive and relevant. However, I think some work needs to be done on the references. There is only one reference, where there should probably be more. Some of the necessary information for the reference seems to be missing. All we have is an author, a title, and a date. Also, it is not referenced correctly. There is a specific format for in text citations for Wikipedia articles that should be used. Once it is done correctly, you will see a blue number where the reference goes.

I would take another look at this sentence: "Planning in coastal areas take into account local geology and the relation of local landforms to the possibility of flooding under extreme circumstances." It doesn't flow very well.

The content of this addition to the stub are good, however it is short for this assignment, so I would recommend expanding this information or adding new sections that are relevant to the stub.

Summary
This article is an expansion on the stub "Geotechnics" that describes specific applications of the field.

Major Points
The new information covers a wide variety of applications, so it serves its purpose well. However, it could definitely use more sources; right now it only has one citation, and even that citation is a little terse, despite covering quite a lot of applications. Additionally, there is no "References" section for the citation -- just a numbered list of the sources right after the last paragraph.

Minor points
The in-line citation is not formatted correctly; it's literally just "[1]" instead of the specially-formatted superscript that links to the References section at the bottom (look at other articles to see how it's done).
