A comparative study of workability classes using seven case studies of engineering-geological investigations of sewer systems in Northern Moravia

Original language description

While the main focus of numerous engineering-geological investigations is to determine load-bearing capacity and settlement in engineering structures, this article aims to point at the specificity of sewer system engineering-geological investigations, which focuses on workability of soils and rocks. The study deals with workability class assessment of seven different sewer system localities. The significance of this research lies in the mutual comparison of workability class assessment of these seven localities in terms of two different workability standards. Each of the standards represents an independent model of assessment and classification of workability. The first standard (CSN 73 1001) classifies soils and rocks into seven workability classes, while the second (EN ISO 14688) comprises only three workability classes. Each of the approaches has its advantages and disadvantages. In comparison to the first one, the second standard permits faster and easier classification of rocks, but may be less fair to investors or developers when considering the real engineering-geological conditions and costs of implementation. Rocks were newly classified into three (easy, medium and difficult) categories of earthwork realization difficulty. In the study, 33 layers were classified in the category of easy realization of earthworks, 8 layers in the category of a medium degree of earthwork realization difficulty, and two layers in the category of a difficult realization of earthworks.
