Pages 1 Pages

PROJECT PROFILE To maintain navigable channel depths, the Cooper River near Charleston, South Carolina is dredged to depths of about 40 feet. The soils comprising the dredged slope consist of loose sand and stiff clay layers to a depth of about 40 to 60 feet, underlain by the Cooper Marl. D’Appolonia was retained to evaluate the stability of the dredged slope at the Charleston Naval Weapons Station under seismic conditions. The fi
