Abstract We acquired a unique ambient vibration dataset from Castleton Tower, a 120 m high bedrock monolith located near Moab, Utah, to resolve dynamic and material properties of the landform. We identified the first two resonant modes at 0.8 and 1.0 Hz, which consist of mutually perpendicular, linearly polarized horizontal ground motion at the top of the tower. Damping ratios for these modes were low at ∼1%. We successfully reproduced field data in 3D numerical eigenfrequency simulation implementing a Young’s modulus of 7 GPa, a value ∼30% lower than measured on core samples. Our analysis con

The article deals with morphological classification of the sandstone rocks in the Ukrainian Carpathians Beskids. By the methods of field measurements and mathematical computations the rock peaks heights, their shape, basement lengths and strata thickness have been calculated. The highest rock peaks in the Beskids amounts 32–37 m. The classification from the morphological point of view on the base of rock forms studying has been done. All rocks are divided in two classes: the rocks-outliers and the rocks-outcrops. Among the rocks-outliers 4 types are defined: spire-shaped, chain-shaped, arc-sha

Abstract:

The right-bank Tsimlyansk settlement is a white-stone fortress doomed to destruction by the construction of the Tsimlyansk reservoir. The estimates of experts in bank transformation show that the fortress will disappear in the next 75 years, while the bank stabilization will take 200 years or longer. The paper presents the results of the 2006–2021 excavations along more than 56 m of the eastern fortress wall and in tower IV which were built from white limestone blocks laid on a base of shell rock and sandstone slabs. No wooden posts under the wall were found, as in the case of the southern cor

Dongjiang Lichuan Bridge in Dongguan City is a curved tower curved beam cable-stayed bridge with a main span of 138m and no back cable. The main pier cap is located on the bank slope of Dongguan Waterway on one side of Nandi Road. The cushion cap is dumbbell type, and the left and right cushion caps are connected by tie beams. In most areas, the top of rock stratum is above the bottom of bearing platform. The rock stratum within the buried depth of bearing platform is moderately to strongly weathered argillaceous siltstone. The geological conditions are complex and the construction is difficul

Abstract South Kerala in southwestern India offers interesting khondalite-charnockite assemblages suitable for detailed multidisciplinary case studies on granulite petrogenesis. Arrested chamockite formation is also characteristic of the terrain. Absolute ages of the khondalites are poorly constrained; we have obtained limited U-Pb zircon data for various rock types of south Kerala khondalite belt. Zircons from khonddite sensu-stricto and garnet-biotite gneiss of possible sedimentary origin give a concordia upper-intercept apparent age of ca. 2200 Ma, suggesting that the khondalites contain de

We present historical and archaeological evidence for an intensity IX earthquake on 21 August 1541, which destroyed buildings of the royal town of Visegrád. Evidence includes vertical fissures cutting through the 30-m-high, thirteenth-century donjon Salamon Tower, built on hard rock.

A number of concrete tower foundations that support power lines over the St. Lawrence River in the Quebec City area were showing deterioration related to alkali–aggregate reactions. The aggregates involved are siliceous limestones commonly exploited in the area. Many foundations have been cored down to the rock basement and samples were taken all along the cores for petrographic examination and mechanical testing. These studies show that the concrete presents some mechanical weaknesses but only in the first decimeters close to the surface, even if the entire mass of the concrete foundations is
