Zusammenfassung |
Limited knowledge of ground conditions, such as geotechnical parameters, is
one of the main causes of foundation failure. Unknown ground conditions can
also cause additional burden costs. Due to lack of geotechnical parameters
in foundation soil, some problems can be observed during and after the
construction.
In this study, a comprehensive field study was conducted to make a
preliminary hazard assessment on the Meşelik campus area, Eskişehir,
Turkey. In this context, the experimental studies were performed in two
stages. In the first stage, boreholes were drilled in the field; a standard
penetration test (SPT) was performed and disturbed/undisturbed samples were
collected from certain levels. In the second stage, laboratory tests were
performed in order to identify and classify the samples. Unconfined
compression strength and triaxial compression tests were conducted on
undisturbed samples for determining the engineering characteristics. XRD (X-ray diffraction)
tests were performed and the swelling potential of the samples were
evaluated. The liquefaction potential of the area was also assessed on a
SPT-based method. Thus, the geotechnical parameters and the liquefaction
potential of the sub-surface in the study area were thoroughly analyzed and
presented to be used for further studies. |
