Application of high resolution shear-wave seismic methods to a geotechnical problem

Signanini, Patrizio / Torrese, Patrizio

Abstract Applied geophysical techniques in underground exploration can be useful in defining the subsoil geometry and the spatial relationships of the physico–mechanical properties of the materials. An example is presented to demonstrate how high-resolution seismic techniques using shear waves can assist with a geotechnical issue. The survey has been carried out to elucidate the subsoil geometry and characterize lithotypes in terms of physico-mechanical parameters, useful in the geotechnical study of an historic monument in which fractures developed following a downslope excavation.
