Abstract

Engineering geology expertise is not used efficiently in the complex design process of land and marine structures. For the solution of many problems connected to the design of foundations co-operation between civil engineers and geologists is of essential importance in order to obtain more certainty regarding uncertainties in the foundation soil. La géologie de l’ingénieur n’est pas utilise à une manière efficace dans la processus de faire le plan des structures hydrauliques sur terre et sur mer. Four la solution de beaucoup des problemes géotechniques lié aux projets de fondation la coopération entre les ingénieurs et les géologues c’est d’importance essentielle pour d’obtenir plus certitude concernant des incertitudes le sol de fondation.
