Zusammenfassung |
The diversion of natural river courses and subsequent filling by
alluvial deposits or anthropic intervention has been hidden by urban
development in the majority of the cities. The research we conducted involved
monitoring the evolution of a river course and reconnaissance of the
original morphology of the fluvial systems. Our research was applied to the
section of the River Beiro that flows through the city of Granada, Spain.
The research has been carried out using geo-technical methodology based on
reconnaissance via dynamic penetration. This allowed us to determine the
different degrees of consolidation and compaction in the areas corresponding
with the former course of the river, which are now filled by alluvial
deposits. In addition, we have backed up our findings with information
provided by historical maps of the city of Granada. The results have
identified an area wherein buildings are at risk, as evidenced by the
detrimental effects registered in the buildings in this area. |
