Geophysics applications in engineering and environmental issues
Rosli Saa1, Edy Tonnizam Mohamad2.
Geophysical investigation is non-invasive, time and cost effective. There is a relation
between geophysics and geotechnical data. Unfortunately many engineers did
not aware of this or have lost confidence in geophysics, as a result of insufficient
communication of the capabilities, limitations and precision of the geophysical
approach; poorly planned investigations; or lack of data integration. With good
communications and planning, geophysics can be used together with borehole,
excavation data or others to provide greater certainty of site characteristics. Three
geophysical investigations case studies were discussed with different objective for
assessment and design. The case studies illustrated how geophysical data can
provide important geological interpretation that could not be achieved by
interpretation from borehole results alone.
