Research of qualitative properties of soils during construction works

Abstract

The development of mankind leads to an increase in the number and diversity of sources of environmental pollution. In urban conditions, environmental pollution occurs due to exhaust emissions coming from various cars, leaks of fuel and lubricants coming from various equipment, etc. Analysis of the current state of urban areas shows that the highest concentration of pollutants is present in soils. The article deals with the problem of the territories of construction sites contaminated with combustible substances coming from construction equipment. Based on the conducted studies of the process of penetration of contaminants in the soil, conclusions are drawn about the permissible time interval for the elimination of contaminants. This data can also be used to eliminate leaks in oil pipelines.
