Engineering Geological Properties of the Volcanic Rocks and Soils of the Canary Islands

January 18, 2008

This paper analyses the engineering geological properties of the rocks and soils of the Canary Islands based on data from field studies, laboratory tests and extensive databases for volcanic materials. Geological properties and processes most relevant to geo-engineering are described. Geomechanical characterization of rock masses and soil deposits inclu...
