Abstract
This paper describes a computerised prediction system for
geotechnical parameters, GeoPredictor. At the preliminary
design stage of a construction project, detailed information
from a ground investigation may not be available.
Consequently, suitable geotechnical parameters for use in a
ground engineering or foundation design may be imprecise.
This system aids the preliminary design process by predicting
geotechnical parameters in two ways, given a brief
description of some site and ground details. Firstly by using
Case-Based Reasoning techniques to consult a data base
containing ground investigation data, and secondly by using
functions derived from correlations between different
geotechnical parameters.
