The Authenticity and Integrity of the Soil and the Foundation of the Heritage Structure of Bayon Temple, Angkor
Soils and foundation of Bayon temple of Angkor Thom has been studied since 1994 by Japanese Government Team for Safeguarding Angkor (JSA). The main tower of Bayon of 32 m in height from the base foundation mound which consists manmade fill of 14 m in thickness. The foundation was studied and found as a simple shallow direct foundation. This is just like a10 story RC building standing upon thick manmade sand fill without such a deep foundation with piling. At present, such a structure based upon thick sandy fill will lose the foundation stability in rainy season under monsoon climate of South-eastern Asia. The amazing mechanism attributed to the monument the standing for 700 years has been revealed as the unsaturated characteristics of well compacted silty sand.
