Abstract
Summary
Quaternary clay soils are opened everywhere by boreholes and pits in the Russian Federation [ 10 ]. Covering loams of the Upper Neopleistocene, as well as glacial (moraine) loams, sandy loam and clay of horizons of the Middle and Lower Neopleistocene are widespread in the central part of the East European Plain [ 8 , 9 ]. Often, these soils are the basis for buildings and structures, so finding their physical properties is an important task for engineering and geological surveys. Among the physical properties of soils determined by seismic exploration, the density, water-physical, and mechanical properties, discussed below, are distinguished.
