This study dealt with the geotechnical properties of soil of the governorates
( Baghdad, Diyala, Wasit And Babylon), depending on the induction & comparison & analysis of soil properties .The study involved collecting data, tabulating the information & analyzing them, then maps were drawn for each property at depths ( "1, 3, 5, 7….15" m).
The selected properties were Atterberg limits ( liquid limit & plasticity index ), dry unit weight, initial void ratio, fine particle percent, strength of soil in term of
( number of blows in S.P.T and unconfined compressive strength ), compression index, organic matter percent, sulphate content, Water table level was also taking into account for Baghdad city.
With the aid of computer program, ( 138 ) geotechnical maps was drawn , (64) of them were devoted for the study case area with scale of (1 : 1500000) & ( 74 ) maps were drawn for Baghdad city |
