Such regions are common in delta areas, where rivers empty into the oceans, along flood plains adjacent to rivers, and in coastal marsh lands. Building cities in such areas aggravates the problem for several reasons:.1. Construction of buildings and streets adds weight to the region causing additional soil deformations. .2. Often the regions have to be drained in order to be occupied. This results in lowering of the water table and leads to hydro-compaction..3. Often the groundwater is used as a source of water for both human consumption and industrial use. .4. Levees and dams are often built to prevent or control flooding..Earth fissures caused by ground failure in areas of uneven or differential compaction have damaged buildings, roads and highways, railroads, flood-control structures and sewer lines. As emphasized by Barends , "in order to develop a legal framework to claims and litigation, it is essential that direct and indirect causes of land subsidence effects can be quantified with sufficient accuracy from a technical and scientific point of | 出版日期 | Book 2013 | 关键词 | Foundation Engineering; Geotechnical Engineering in Urban Areas; Hydrogeology; Land Subsidence; Soil Mec | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-94-007-5506-2 | isbn_softcover | 978-94-007-9734-5 | isbn_ebook | 978-94-007-5506-2Series ISSN 2194-3214 Series E-ISSN 2194-3222 | issn_series | 2194-3214 | copyright | Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht 2013 |
