HYDROGEOLOGICAL RESEARCH AND TERRAIN CHARACTERIZATION ON A SECTION OF ROAD 2B SARAJEVO-FOČA, AREA OF FBiH

Abstract

Roadways are complex construction (line) facilities that have specific characteristics in terms of planning, design and execution of the route. Due to the length of the roads, many characteristics of the terrain such as lithological, hydrogeological, engineering geological and geomorphological change along the route, as a result of which different effects of endodynamic and exodynamic processes and phenomena occur on certain sections. This points to the necessity of an interdisciplinary approach when creating the conceptual and implementation project, in order to choose the optimal solution based on all the influencing parameters. The route of the road that passes through the Entity of the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina, for the most part stretches along the valley of the Željeznica and Dobrinja rivers. The section is located at stations 0+000.00 – 3+250.00, and continues at stations 19+800.00 – 26+100.00, and the total length is 9,550 m'. The area of the studied terrain is located in the zone of the inner Dinarides of Bosnia and Herzegovina, where the pre- mountainous and moderate-continental climate prevails. The elevations of the terrain start at 505 m.a.s.l. in the part of the route near the Stupska petlje loop, and increase to an elevation of 535 m.a.s.l., in the part of Aerodromski settlement, while the second part of the section stac.19+800.00 – 26+100.00 is defined by elevations of 778 m.a.s.l. – 830 m.a.s.l. Key words: hydrogeological characteristics of the aquifer, route of the Sarajevo-Foča road.
