Article Description

This study aims to determine the geotechnical properties of foundation soils and evaluation of foundation conditions, and the cause of construction deformation in the alluvial soils. The construction site consists of new and old alluvial (Quaternary) deposits in the study area. For the evaluation of foundation conditions, 6 undisturbed and 21 disturbed samples were collected from various locations. These samples were tested for various geotechnical properties including index properties, shear strength and consolidation characteristics. In the light of the results obtained, foundation problems were evaluated.
