FRAMEWORKS FOR EARLY PLANNING

These documents present the author’s independent technical viewpoints under the SpaceGeotech.org platform. The content is provisional and intended solely for educational and professional development purposes in the emerging field of extraterrestrial civil engineering.

All frameworks, equations, and values herein are adaptations of terrestrial geotechnical principles to lunar conditions. They are not definitive laws and must not be used as substitutes for in-situ site investigation, mission-specific validation, or detailed engineering design.

Figures and parameters are derived from Apollo mission data, later orbital datasets, and terrestrial analogs. They remain subject to revision as further lunar ground-truth data becomes available through Artemis, Chang’e, and other missions.
