Σύνοψη

Usually the soil at a site to be developed is not ideal from
the viewpoint of soil engineering. In some cases I the
engineer can avoid potential soil problems by choosing another site or by removing the undesirable soil and replacing it with desirable soil. In the early days of highway construction this procedure was widely employed; e. g. highways were routed around swamps. As time went on, the decision to avoid bad soils was made less frequently. The increase in speed of vehicles forced stricter alignment standards on tracks,highways and runways. Wi th the growth of cities and industrial areas the supply of sites with good foundation conditions became depleted. Increasingly the soil engineer has been forced to construct at sites selected for reasons other than soil conditions.
