Engineering geological and geophysical investigation of the reclaimed Lekki Peninsula, Lagos, South West Nigeria
Abstract It was hoped to develop an area of reclaimed land on the Lekki Peninsula of Lagos State. An investigation was therefore carried out in order to establish the subsurface geological/geo-electrical sequence; to identify the sand columns and determine their thickness and prepare a map of the geomorphological features of the original, pre-fill terrain. Vertical electrical resistivity soundings (VES) and penetrometer tests were carried out in a sand filled segment of the Lekki Peninsula. The information obtained showed a good correlation between the geomorphological features as interpreted from the aerial photographs and those identified from maps derived from the VES/penetrometer results.
