Construction and Difficult Geology: Karstic Limestone, Permafrost, Wetlands, and Peat Deposits
The 11 papers in the report deal with the following areas: mapping and prediction of limestone bedrock problems; characteristics of sinkhole development and implications for potential cavity collapse; corrective procedures for sinkhole collapse on the western highland rim, Tennessee; use of sinkholes for drainage; road construction in palsa fields; settlement rates in the varved clays of the hackensack meadowlands; pedotechnical aspects of organic soil classification and interpretation; pedologic classification of peat; compression of peat under embankment loading; experience with development of peat deposits at Walt Disney World, Florida; and, construction and performance of pavement over muskegs.
