The results of permeability and compressibility tests of the fly ash from Skawina Power Plant were presented in the paper. These tests were carried out in the aspect of its usage in filtration barriers in municipal and industrial waste landfi lls. It was stated that the tested fly ash can not be used for fi ltration barriers, mainly because of granulation and fi ltration criteria. Although, the addition...
Soft soils, exhibiting low strength properties in the case of external load, require improvement. Chemical stabilization is easy in preparing and presents very good results in improving mechanical properties. In this paper, results of CBR and unconfi ned compressive strength test are presented for cohesive soil – sandy clay. Stabilization medium was Reymix, which is a cement derivative. Conducted...
Road complex which includes a road network with traffic, road services, car repair businesses, and enterprises for the production of fuels and materials for the repair of roads, is an important source of environmental pollution, and the degree of contamination depends on the quality of the road pavement. The present research is aimed to find the interaction between the amount of emissions into the...
The determination of the sludge fertilising influence for the growth and composition of the urban grasslands’ swards and heavy metals concentration in above-ground parts of the plants was the aim of the study. The study was conducted on four research plots along the main roads in Białystok. The plots were seeded with two mixtures of lawn grasses (Eko and Roadside) and three doses of sludge were applied:...
The article presents changes in thermal and precipitation conditions on Polish territory in the years 1971–2010 based on data from six meteorological stations (Koszalin, Olsztyn, Poznań, Lublin, Opole and Kraków). These data concern the monthly average air temperature, precipitation and the number of days with precipitation per month. Based on the analysis of changing trends in the study of meteorological...
The article presents the results of research conducted in order to create nomographs allowing assessment of slope stability. The proposed recommendations involve graphs and charts, where factor of safety (FOS) is computed in according to six different characteristics: slope height and angle, slope surface vegetation cover, applied surcharge, position of water table, soil mechanical conditions. For...
Research presents usability of the River Habitat Survey (RHS) evaluation method in forecasting effects of the Zielawa River restoration, performed in selected section between 18 + 960 km and 19 + 460 km. The EU so-called Water Framework Directive signalizes necessity of achieving a good ecological status of European rivers in the immediate future. Accordingly, river restoration is the main tool for...
