Estimation of Sinkhole Danger at a One-Building's Site in Moscow, Russia
Publication: Sinkholes and the Engineering and Environmental Impacts of Karst
Abstract
Estimation of the sinkhole danger in small areas where construction of one new building or reconstruction of one existing building is planned requires site specific information. Unlike qualitative estimates sufficient for large territories, estimates for small sites need to be quantitative forecasts. It is usually necessary to give the engineering-geological recommendations for antikarst protection of a building. This paper presents a description of an approach intended for the solution of these problems. The practical usage of this approach is illustrated with a site-investigation in Moscow.
