Description
Summary:This document is an updated version of “GUIDELINES FOR CONSTRUCTION ON PEAT AND ORGANIC SOILS IN MALAYSIA” developed in 2015. This new version supersedes the 2015 first publication. The main changes of this updated version incorporate new information obtained from research and revision carried out by local universities, government agencies and private consultants. This second edition contains high resolution and refined maps for all peat land in Malaysia. These updated maps were contributed by Jabatan Mineral dan Geosains Malaysia (JMG). Local universities such as Universiti Tun Hussien Onn Malaysia, Universiti Malaysia Pahang, Universiti Malaysia Sarawak and Monash University Malaysia contributed on the engineering properties of peat. More local data were incorporated in this new document. Correlations on design properties were updated as reference for engineers and designers.
