Soil Mechanics and Foundation Engineering Aims and scope

Abstract

The history of the development of methodical and regulatory documents relative to construction in karst-prone areas is cited. The basic content of existing regulatory documents is presented, and attention is focused on some of their deficiencies. Specific approaches to the development of a standard for construction in karst-prone areas are proposed.
