Geophysical and geotechnical methods for diagnosing flood protection dikes guide for implementation and interpretation

This book presents a three-phase methodology for the efficient diagnosis of “dry dikes†(i.e. dykes built above normal water levels of the rivers that provide protection at time of flood). Although the principles of the method described herein were developed on dikes in France, they may be appli...
