Seismological Engineering Studies for Rock Foundations of Proposed Dam Sites, South Sinai Province, Egypt
Abstract The seismic refraction survey was conducted to obtain the ground models at 5 individual sites, South Sinai province. They are proposed locations for dams. For each site, the foundation parameters for civil engineering purposes were evaluated. These are: the TV-value, the concentration index, and the foundation material bearing capacity and the stress ratio. The mechanical properties of rocks were evaluated for the different sites using seismic refraction technique. The amplification characteristics of SH-waves in the layered soil were calculated using the multiple reflection method. A seismic coefficient was obtained using the peak acceleration on the ground surface which was estimated using the fault parameters of the hypothetical Gulf of Aqaba earthquake with M = 6.9.
