Soil data
- Thread starter Wood2coal
- Start date
A lot of cities having geotechnical data on file at the city hall. I would try there first.
If your intention is to use this data for design, then don't. Geotechnical data which has been obtained for sites and designs other than for own should not be used unless a subsurface investigation is carried out by a geotechnical engineer for your site, then it can be used for comparison. I strongly suggest obtaining a geotechnical engineer to do your soils investigation
