ANALYSIS OF RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN SHEAR WAVE VELOCITY AND DEPTH OF SOME TYPES OF SOIL AND ROCK IN SHENZHEN REGION

A correlative analysis is made between shear wave velocity and depth of some types of soil and rock in ShenZhen Region in this paper. The effect of geological origin, type, physical state of soil and rock and the geomorphic unit in which the site is located on shear wave velocity is considered during the analysis, and the important results which can direct geotechnical engineering are obtained. At last, a special discussion about mechanism of the relationship is made.
