Erection of Foundation-Basement Part of Underground Structures in Water-Saturated Soils of Odessa Region

Abstract

According to the General Plan of the city's perspective development, it is planned to develop the territories of the irrigation fields and the adjoining dam. The article details the engineering tasks of erecting the foundation-basement construction of underground structures considering the geological and hydrogeological conditions of the low-lying area of the Odessa region. Features of occurrence and genesis of low-lying part sites have been elaborated. The paper also elucidates the methods of orientation employed and water lowering during the erection of underground structures. Technological order of work execution for reliable and effective structural scheme of underground structures in water-saturated soils is proposed. A device for vertical waterproofing of external walls and horizontal waterproofing of the floor of an underground structure has been developed.
