CONCRETE PLATFORM CONSTRUCTION FOR AGRICULTURAL MACHINES BASED ON GEOTECHNICAL STUDY

Abstract

The geotechnical study resulted from the need to know the foundation soil in order to build a concrete platform. The geotechnical study includes geotechnical exploration works carried out in the area of the site in Bailesti, Dolj, in order to provide data regarding: the stratification of the land on the site, the physical-mechanical characteristics of the identified soils, the admissible pressures at different foundation levels, the framing of the excavations according to the TS standard, the freezing depth, the seismic framing, the hydrogeological data. It is found that the site is flat, with slight unevenness that favors puddles and the surface soil layer (0-6 m) is medium-good for foundations, consisting of clayey to sandy clayey, blackish to yellowish brown (0-1.7 m) and sandy clayey to sandy dusts below 1.7 m depth.
