THE ROLE OF ENGINEERING-GEOLOGICAL ZONES IN FOUNDATION ENGINEERING
(STEF92 TECHNOLOGY LTD, 2012)
The role of engineering-geological conditions in foundation engineering is very important as they define the marginal conditions of the subsoil being capable of bearing a building without possible negative effects on its ...
NEED FOR A SPECIFIC DESCRIPTION OF SOLID ROCKS AND SOILS IN ENGINEERING GEOLOGY
(STEF92 TECHNOLOGY LTD, 2012)
Description of rocks in engineering geology is a specific and different from other geological disciplines. This need results from the necessity to apply of the rock properties in their names and descriptions. For foundation ...
On the value of dolines in gypsum terrains as a "Geological Heritage": an example from Sivas basin, Turkey
(SPRINGER, 2012)
Karst topography is a landscape shaped by the dissolution of a layer or layers of soluble bedrock, usually limestone and evaporites. Karstification in the Sivas basin (Turkey) has sculpted a beautiful landscape with a ...
Landslide hazard and risk assessment: a case study from the Hlohovec-Sered' landslide area in south-west Slovakia
(SPRINGER, 2012)
Landslide hazard or susceptibility assessment is based on the selection of relevant factors which play a role on the slope instability, and it is assumed that landslides will occur at similar conditions to those in the ...
Evaluation of subsidence due to underground coal mining: an example from the Czech Republic
(SPRINGER HEIDELBERG, 2012)
This paper presents a case study dealing with variations on the ground surface due to the underground mining activities in the Ostrava-Karvina Coal District (Czech Republic) over the last 25 years. During this period, some ...
Subsidence map of underground mining influence for urban planning: an example from the Czech Republic
(GEOLOGICAL SOC PUBL HOUSE, 2012)
The objective of this study is to produce a subsidence map linked to underground mining influence in a mining region. Ground subsidence represents the most important characteristic of a subsidence basin. However, ground ...
Optimization of building site category determination in an undermined area prior to and after exhausting coal seams
(PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2012)
…
Determination of actual limit angles to the surface and their comparison with the empirical values in the Upper Silesian Basin (Czech Republic)
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2012)
This study deals with the determination of the actual limit angles in the long-term formed subsidence basin in the Czech part of the Upper Silesian Basin (the remaining part lays in Poland). Here there was the most extensive ...
Neural computing models for prediction of permeability coefficient of coarse-grained soils
(SPRINGER, 2012)
Correlations are very significant from the earliest days; in some cases, it is essential as it is difficult to measure the amount directly, and in other cases it is desirable to ascertain the results with other tests through ...
THE RELATION OF THE SURFACE GEOLOGICAL STRUCTURE AND FLOODPLAINS AS IMPORTANT CRITERION FOR FOUNDATION ENGINEERING
(STEF92 TECHNOLOGY LTD, 2012)
Dealing with the relation of the surface geological structure and floodplains is a very important scientific topic. The character of the geological structure is significant as these are areas unsuitable for foundation ...
