Abstract

The aim of this paper is to define the geotechnical and seismic-geological characteristics of the terrain of the investigated аrea, the local disorders and discontinuities that indicate the presence of weakened and disintegrated zones. The research is performed using the geotechnical investigations and seismic refractive method and consists of field measurements, processing and analysis of the obtained results. The object of the investigation is the
Acropolis of the fortress Isar. Analyzing the obtained data, three lithological environments are distinguished which are characterized by different physical and mechanical characteristics. The following lithological environments are distinguished: surface layer made of deluvium and crushed material from a mother rock reaching an interval of 0–4 m; subsurface zone consisting of a fragmented degraded mother rock with a depth of 6 to 10 m, characterized by quite poor physical-mechanical characteristics and represents a critical zone; intensely cracked rocks at depths greater than 10 m where the physical-mechanical characteristics of the rock are improved.
