It wasprepared by Subcommittee B/526/3, Site investigation and ground testing, underthe authority of Technical Committee B/526, Geotechnics. A list of organizationsrepresented on this comm

This w

32、as replaced by fulleditions in 1981 and 1999, which covered the subject matter in greater detailand each of which was brought up to date at the time of publication.The 1999 edition was amended twice to incorporate changes necessary tomaintain compliance with BS EN 1997-1 and BS EN 1997-2 and their r

33、elatedstandards.This is a full revision of the standard, and introduces the following principalchanges: The majority of changes arise from the further implementation into UKpractice of BS EN 1997-1 and BS EN 1997-2 and the related test standardscited therein and the need to conform to these standard

34、s. The revision of material that is now out of date. There is new informationon geophysical surveying and ground testing and updated guidance onground investigations on contaminated ground, changes to accommodatethe requirements of data capture in the field and the inclusion of this inreporting as w

Itsrecommendations are expressed in sentences in which the principal

40、 auxiliaryverb is “should”.Commentary, explanation and general informative material is presented insmaller italic type, and does not constitute a normative element.The word “should” is used to express recommendations of this standard. Theword “may” is used in the text to express permissibility, e.g.

41、 as an alternative tothe primary recommendation of the clause. The word “can” is used to expresspossibility, e.g. a consequence of an action or an event.Notes and commentaries are provided throughout the text of this standard.Notes give references and additional information that are important but do

A ground investigation is a process starting with initial documentationabout the site and its envir

44、ons followed by continuous exploration andinterpretation, with the scope of the investigation requiring regular amendmentin the light of the data being obtained.This British Standard is set out to follow, in broad terms, the sequence of aground investigation from initial considerations through the p

45、hased design andimplementation of an investigation programme and its reporting, to thecontinuing investigation during and after construction.Section 1 of this British Standard deals with those matters of a technical, legal orenvironmental character that need to be taken into account in selecting the

46、 site(or in determining whether a selected site is suitable) and in preparing thedesign of the works. The safety of all those involved in investigation, includingthe general public and the environment, is also introduced here to emphasize itsfundamental importance in the execution of all aspects of

47、the investigation; thiscoverage is referred to but not repeated throughout the standard.Section 2 outlines the procedures that should be followed and the informationthat should be collected in desk studies and field reconnaissance.Section 3 discusses general aspects of planning investigations, inclu

48、ding thefactors that influence the selection of methods of investigation.Section 4 discusses methods of intrusive investigation, including overwaterinvestigations (i.e those carried out using land-based methods), sub-divided intoexcavations and boreholes, sampling, and groundwater observations.Secti

49、on 5 outlines the methods of geophysics that can be used for groundmapping, characterization and testing, from the ground surface, boreholes,crosshole and surface to borehole and overwater.Section 6 deals with the terminology and systems recommended for use indescribing and classifying soil and rock materials and soil and rock masses.Section 7 describes the range of field tests that can be considered to meas
