Geotechnical evaluation of some properties of the physical and chemical soil selected sites in Najaf-Iraq

Abstract EN

This study was conducted on selected soil in the governorate of Al- Najaf, for the purpose of identifying some of the physical and chemical properties and its importance to the establishment of engineering at the site, and based on the investigation of the engineering.

For soil investigation, with a 10-borehole test.

It was found from the results obtained from field and laboratory work that soil study area like the soil Mesopotamian plain areas where silty clay is high plasticity interspersed with shallow sandy soils of some sites, which need some engineering treatments to improve their quality.
