Abstract

AbstractGeotechnical survey are an important part in design of building and structures. The geological data from 3500 boreholes and 1927 in-situ testing were collected into a unified Geotechnical database of Nur-Sultan, Kazakhstan. The city territory was regrouped into 8 zones, based on the geological origin and stratigraphy interposition of the six main engineering-geological elements (EGE). The developed geotechnical database was improved with the results of previously conducted Static Load Testing (SLT) and Pile Dynamic tests (PDA). A preliminary assessment of the pile length for each zone of the city was determined, corresponding to the geological structure and survey data from the previous and ongoing geological reports. The improved geotechnical database allow a preliminary assessment of the bearing capacity of soils, the optimal parameters of the pile length, labor costs and financial costs for the construction of foundations at the design stage.KeywordsGeotechnical databasePile length assessmentBearing capacity of soilsGeological surveyGeotechnical survey
