Abstract
Due to the large development of subsidence and failures in St. Petersburg, there are problems with determining the causes of their formation and connection with underground utilities. The relevance of the work is caused by the fact that subsidence and failures pose a threat to the safety of traffic, for the technical condition of underground utilities and cause violations in the structures of buildings and structures. To this end, the technical diagnostics Service of SUE «Vodokanal of St. Petersburg» develops a method of their examination by a set of geophysical methods. In the report the characteristic of subsidence and failures is given, the technique of their geophysical survey and examples of the results of geophysical survey of the most common subsidence and failures are given.
