Series Statement
AbstractClay deposits are always a big interesting field. Soft clays have low strength and high compressibility many failures and damages can occur to energy facilities constructed on them, causing the increase in construction cost and creating the safety concerns. Nowadays, many infrastructures are constructed on the Red River Delta clay, whole properties vary from place to place.In this study, geological, and geotechnical data were collected two project sites, BTMV Bridgestone project in Hai Phong, and Kyoei Steel project in Ninh Binh. Data collected were analyzed to help understand better the formation, distribution and geotechnical properties of soft clays in Red river delta at these study sites. The correlations between soil parameters at two sites were found and they can be used for calculation of some missing data in the nearby projects, which have similar geological and geotechnical conditions.One of important output of this research is creating the temple of data sheets and graphs for characterization of the site investigation data, which can be used for site investigation report in the next time.
