Abstract

Obtaining objective information on the engineering and geological properties of rock masses requires a broad range of studies, including geological, geotechnical, hydrogeological, and geophysical ones. The physical basis of engineering seismic acoustics is the close relationship between elastic wave parameters and the structural features, properties, and condition of the rock masses being studied.


This article examines the role of engineering geophysics in the construction of critical structures. Specific projects and their implementation methods are presented as examples.
