Guidelines for urban engineering geological investigations in South Africa
Abstract These guidelines endeavour to provide a standard by which engineering geological investigations for urban development should be carried out. The investigations for urban development can be divided into three different categories, namely: investigations for planning, investigations for urban development and specialized geotechnical investigations. The minimum requirements for the planning and urban development investigations are listed. These guidelines suggest the level at which the various types of investigation should be carried out as well as the range of application, the scope and the methodology to be used for the different investigations. It is hoped they will provide guidance to both practitioners and clients on the importance and application of engineering geology in the establishment of new urban development.
