Geo-Institute Technical SeminarTopic – The Implications of Minerals Exploitation on Dam and Levee Safety
Sands and gravels are used to make concrete and facilitate the construction of structures. In addition, sands and gravels are needed as free-draining backfill behind retaining walls. Low plasticity sandy clays are used to replace expansive clays below ground-supported floor slabs and to reduce the post-construction potential vertical movements of the subgrade. This presentation will outline the problems that past mining activities are creating for the existing levees and dams.
