Engineering Geological Evaluation Of Burrow Pit For Subgrade Lateritic Soil Along Atan-agbara Road, South-western Nigeria

ABSTRACT The main aim and objective of the project is to evaluate the foundation soils along atan-agbara road as highway subgrade and sub-base material, to determine the geotechnical basis (if any) for the observed failure cases as studied. The methodology stage involves; Field investigation which entails Desk study stage and Reconnaissance survey and sampling. The samples were collected at different depths from the burrow pit in the study area, naming it TA, TB and TC. This samples are then taken to the laboratory for analysis for determination of specific gravity, grain size distribution,co…
