Report Title : Guide to Rock and Soil Descriptions
Author : Geotechnical Engineering Office
Abstract
This Geoguide presents a recommended standard of good practice for the description of Hong Kong rocks and soils for engineering purposes and should be used in conjunction with the companion document, Guide to Site Investigation (Geoguide 2), which covers the topics dealt with in Sections 1 to 7 of BS 5930. Together, these two Geoguides expand upon, and largely replace, Chapter 2 of the Geotechnical Manual for Slopes.
