A guide to core logging for rock engineering
www.rockmass.netaspects important to rock engineering. The proposed guide takes due cognizance of existing accepted systems of soil and rock mass description or classification and attempts to remain compatible with these wherever feasible. Only those parameters which are commonly of interest in rock engineering are described.

DESIGN OF A PILE GROUP BY USING SOIL PROPERTIES
www.ijemr.netThe silty clay soil is a type of soil which is not capable of supporting a structure, deep foundations are required to transfer the loads. The most common types of deep foundations are Piles, Piers and Caissons. By using the soil properties such as Liquid limit, Saturated density, Optimum moisture content etc,. The pile foundation can be designed.
