Abstract
Summary
As part of a civil engineering project for line of communication extension, slope stability analysis was required. The ground model, based on geotechnical soundings alone failed to resolve the required parameters. Therefore, a more extensive study combining Electrical Resistivity Tomography and S-wave reflection seismic was conducted. The resulting geological model properly address the need for a comprehensive slope stability analysis. The integration of structural information from the SH-wave reflection seismic, the resistivity model and the geotechnical soundings provides a sounded geological model down to the bedrock and a clear image of the overlaying moraine, marine clay and fluvial deposits.
