Abstract |
Soil Mechanics Division of Maharashtra Engineering Research Institute, Nasik, has been carrying out tests on soil samples from all over Maharashtra since 1959. Various tests are carried out on soil samples viz. Grain size / Mechanical Analysis, Liquid Limit & Plastic Limit, Shrinkage Limit, Specific Gravity, Compaction test, Shear test, Consolidation test, Swelling Pressure, Permeability test etc. These tests are carried out mainly to identify Density, Permeability, Compressibility and Shear strength of Soil, which are useful in design of earthen dams, canal embankments, and canal lining etc. Huge data of these test results is generated in the process. The purpose of the study is to prepare long term integrated plan for soil parameters and derive soil properties pattern for Konkan region in the Maharashtra State. Though soils in Konkan region being heterogeneous in nature and no two samples even from same location are same, it is felt that data presented will definitely provide preliminary guide to the users regarding soil properties in Konkan region Keywords— Soil Mechanics, Soil properties, Classification of soil, type of soil, Kokan region soil pattern, Soil properties pattern. | |||||||||
