| 4. | Which of the following statements is correct in the case of the seismic method of site investigation ? | |
|
The method can be used if a hard layer with a greater seismic velocity overlies a softer layer with a smaller seismic velocity.
|
||
|
If an area contains underground features such as an irregular water table, the interpretation of the result becomes very difficult
|
||
|
The method can be used for the areas covered by concrete or asphalt pavement having a high seismic velocity
|
||
|
If the surface layer is frozen, then the method cannot be used.
