GEOTECHNICAL ASPECTS OF THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE INTEGRATED HARBOUR SLUDGE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM IN BREMENT-SEEHAUSEN

Geotechnical aspects in planning and siting of an integrated harbor sludge management system are discussed. Topics include the alternatiave and new composition of conditioned sludge material to be used as a sealing material of high quality as well as the design of the landfill, which had to give consideration to enormous consolidation processes of the landfill body and the subsoil, which is characterized by soft soil layers up to 8 m in thickness. The problems that arose due to the expected settlement of the landfill body and due to the changing soil mechanics parameters of the dredged sludge material and subsoil during consolidation as well as the considerations concerning the placement of dredged sludge material, the division of the landfill in operational sections as well as the possible development of landfill slopes and the final surface cover of the landfill are explained and the solutions developed are presented.
