Geotechnical Investigation Belluton near Bristol <\/h2>\n

In support of some road stabilisation work SWEL have carried out a geotechnical investigation at Belluton near Bristol.<\/p>\n

Despite tight access, drilling works started in a timely fashion, with recovered of some excellent core samples. Holes were advanced to a depth of 15 meters, with dynamic sampling in soils and weathered rocks, and coring in rock proper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

The investigation is to provide data for a cutting for road widening. The rock seems very competent, but soil nails are proposed for further strengthening. Samples were tested for aggressive ground characteristics, and a variety of classification and strength tests.<\/p>\n
