  • Land Subsidence Analysis in Urban Areas

    The Bangkok Metropolitan Area Case Study

    Collections series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    Cities built on unconsolidated sediments consisting of clays, silt, peat, and sand, are particularly susceptible to subsidence. Such regions are common in delta areas, where rivers empty into the oceans, along flood plains adjacent to rivers, and in coastal marsh lands. Building cities in such areas aggravates the problem for several reasons:Construction of buildings and streets adds weight to the ... En savoir plus
