Abstract

Some examples of suffusion processes in the urbanized territories, connected with the increased technogenic load of soil of the bases of structures and facilities of transport infrastructure are considered. Examples of suffusion development at the facilities of road infrastructure and at the projects of hidrotechnical construction are given. The reasons and regularities of suffusion processes development are revealed. Formation of suffusion holes is demonstrated on the example of the facilities of the largest megalopolis of Russia (Moscow), the city of Volgograd and the federal Moscow-Simferopol highway. The lack of proper consideration of this promptly developing process annually results in significant economic and ecological damage. The generalizing conclusions are drawn and the qualitative recommendations on prevention of suffusion development and minimization of damage in case of suffusion processes are made.

Highlights

It is impossible to present the human's activity in the modern world of high technologies and total industrialization without the equipment
The suffusion is included in the list of natural influences, dangerous for construction, along with such processes as landslides, the karst and processing of coast of reservoirs [3]; on the other hand, it is considered only in a paragenesis with them and is not recognized as independent geological process [4]
In the morning on June 20, 2015 at 7-30 in the morning the hole, with the size 3,0 *4,5 m and more than 2,5 m deep was formed in the second row of inside of Moscow Circle Highway (MCH); just before this incident, a similar hole has been liquidated in the same place (Fig. 1)

Summary

Introduction

It is impossible to present the human's activity in the modern world of high technologies and total industrialization without the equipment This process of change of natural complexes as the result of production activity of the person is known in the scientific literature as technocenez. Since the beginning of the 20th century the activity of technically armed humankind, became comparable to the geological forces, changing the image of Earth. As this process is connected with life and necessary activity of people (growth of population, development of technology and culture, receiving necessary means for maintenance of processes of metabolism of the human), it is inevitable [1]. The suffusion is included in the list of natural influences, dangerous for construction, along with such processes as landslides, the karst and processing of coast of reservoirs [3]; on the other hand, it is considered only in a paragenesis with them and is not recognized as independent geological process [4]
