Engineering geology in the Bendery urban area

The paper describes geotechnical conditions of the city of Bendery, taking into account their genetic characteristics and the degree of impact on recent geological processes. Geotechnical studies were carried out to obtain comprehensive data on geotechnical conditions for compiling the map of geotechnical zoning and the map of seismic microzoning of Bendery. Methodological materials of this study are available in statutory documents, educational publications. The authors identified general physical and geographical features of the urban area. The process of the formation of the current relief of the urban area and adjacent areas is described. The base map of the depth of the first aquifer from the surface in Bendery was compiled. For construction purposes, conclusions were drawn regarding the GC of certain districts of Bendery.
