Abstract
A041 Z-99 Use of surface waves for geotechnical characterization of 1 neogene deposits – The Glyfada Athens case study. AUTHORS K. Symeonidis T.D. Papadopoulos and J. Alexopoulos University of Athens Geophysics-Geothermics Dpt. Panepistimiopolis Zographou 15784 Athens Greece Abstract Summary. The surface waves method was used in this case study as an alternative and efficient tool for geological and geotechnical investigation. The site is located at Glyfada Athens where neogene formations mainly composed by clayish layers with intercalations of conglomerates are present. The results were compared with data from geotechnical investigation and seismic refraction data. Introduction. The test site is located
