Changes of geotechnical properties of the Holocene sediments at Giong Trom-Ben Tre

Abstract

The aim of the study is to find out the changes of geotechnical properties of the Holocene sediments that formed in the delta plain of the Mekong River. Giong Trom, Ben Tre province is chosen as a case study to investigate. Simultaneously, the changes of the geotechnical properties were compared with the sedimentary changes of the previous research results. The results of this study were applied for calculating the foundation of structures and planning the infrastructure of the area.
