Engineering geological mapping of natural slopes
163A Applications of EGMs to recent projects are described, considering development in the Torbay area (potential slope stability, flooding, sinkhole, and erosion problems) and in an area of Yorkshire extensively worked by open pit and underground coal mines.
geology maps. The preparation of such maps which may indicate lithology, water regimes, environmental dynamic processes, and man made changes is described, A case study is also reviewed.

Engineering geological mapping 1:25000 of NordrheinWestfalen, FRG: A regional engineering geological map Katterherberg, J Proc 6th International Congress International Association of Engineering Geology, Amsterdam, 6-10 August 1990 VI, P!59-162. Publ Rotterdam: A A Balkema, 1990 In order to study engineering geological properties of soil and rocks, engineering geological maps for the urban areas on the Rhine and Ruhr have been produced. The lithology of the area, influence of man on the topsoil, mining activities, and distribution and thickness of fills are indicated. The hydrogeologic conditions of the areas are also described. Details of preparation of these maps at scales 1:25000 to I:100000 are presented.
913268 Engineering geological map of Mainz/Rhine FRG Krauter, E; Feuerbach, J Proc 6th International Congress International Association of Engineering Geology, Amsterdam, 6-10 August 1990 VI . P163-168. Publ Rotterdam: A A Balkema. 1990 Engineering geological maps have been prepared for the Mainz/Rhine area in order to aid planning. Data were stored in a special data bank indicating the general geology, morphology, hydrogeology, and landslides. Techniques used for data acquisition and map preparation include airphoto analysis, drilling, soundings, excavation, and engineering geophysical investigations. Acquisition of data, map preparation, map storage, and representation are reviewed. 913269 Engineering geological mapping of natural slopes Lakov, A; Anguelov, K Proc 6th International Congress International Association of Engineering Geology, Amsterdam, 6-10 August 1990 V I. P169-173. Publ Rotterdam: A A Balkema. 1990 Construction in slope regions is usually very difficult due to the complex nature of the influence of structure on slope stability. In order to help in architectural planning, engineering geological maps of slopes through which stable conditions can be determined have been prepared. For each natural slope an additional load that it can bear without loosing its stability is indicated. Analysis of the potential sliding plane along a natural slope and preparation of engineering geological maps are discussed. 913270

P175-180. Publ Rotterdam: A A Balkema, 1990 Understanding the urban geological environment is of great importance for urban planning. It is imperative that human activities should be conducted without causing any negative effects that may lead to geological disasters. The relationship between urban geological environment and development can be established through well prepared and detailed engineering
Surface geotechnical mapping of Sao Carlos, Brazil Lorandi, R; Goncalves, A R L; Calijuri, M L Proc 6th International Congress International Association of
Engineering Geology, Amsterdam, 6-10 August 1990 VI. P189-193. Publ Rotterdam: A A Balkema, 1990 Investigations were carried out in order to establish geotechnical classifications of tropical soils in the Sao Carlos area, Brazil. From these investigations it was intended to produce a surface geotechnical map that could help civil engineering planning. The collected data included physical, chemical, and mineralogical details of urban and suburban areas. Identification of environments based on their geological origins and production of the geotechnical map are discussed. 913272
Application of geoenvironmental cartography to the Roussilion littoral (In French) Masson, M; Buquet, P; Allet, C Proc 6th International Congress International Association of Engineering Geology, Amsterdam, 6-10 August 1990 VI . P195-202. Publ Rotterdam: A A Balkema, 1990 The littoral area of Roussillon, on the Mediterranean coast of France, is becoming heavily urbanised, with attendant problems. A long term plan for the area has been formulated using results of comprehensive mapping of the hydrology, geology, vegetation, and land use. Areas being inappropriately used can be determined, and future developments suitably sited. Flooding and pollution risks can be minimised and the environment protected whilst allowing continued planned development of the tourist industry. 913273 Geotechnic map of Algiers region - Case study: the Houari

P203-209. Publ Rotterdam: A A Balkema, 1990 The city of Algiers is growing and spreading into areas considered to have poor constructional soils. Consequently, a hydrological and geotechnical mapping program has been undertaken. Extensive site investigation and laboratory examination of cores provided data on soil classification and geotechnical properties including density, water content, saturation, granulometry, consolidation, and liquid limit. Land usage maps, considering suitability of the soil for building foundations, have been prepared. 913274
