Ground mechanical card 22.2.5 Gent-Gentbrugge, Plate I: Docking (scan original plate)

The ground-mechanical maps were drawn up by the Ghent University’s Ground Mechanical Cartering Centre and the Working Group or Commission for Ground-Mechantering (several authors) and issued under the auspices of the National Institute for Land mechanics. Quote from the explanatory texts accompanying the ground mechanical maps: “The ground-mechanical maps meet a need for a summary representation of those components of the geological environment which play a role in land use and influence the design, construction and maintenance of construction works. However, the data provided should not be given absolute accuracy because of the interpolations made when they were prepared. The maps shall provide information on the general geological and soil mechanical condition of the substrate as derived from the tests available at the time of mapping. They are therefore only guiding documents and the authors cannot be held responsible for their possible uses. The ground mechanical map 22.2.5 Gent-Gentbrugge, Plate I: Docking, scale 1: 5000.
