ENGINEERING PROPERTIES OF THE QUARTERNARY SEDIMENTS IN QUANG TRI - THUA THIEN HUE COASTAL PLAIN

Abstract

In this paper, the authors have applied the systematization approach and data out-liers processing to determine the representative values of physio-mechanical properties of three engineering soil groups in study area, including granular soil, cohesive soil and the soil with special particle composition, state and technical properties (referred as special soil). Tabular records of physico-mechanical properties of Quaternary sediments in Quang Tri - Thua Thien Hue coastal plain are not only a referencing database for planning and construc-tion of infrastructure and socio - economic development, but also useful materials for training and research in the field of applied geology and geotechnic in Vietnam.
