The main environmental problem caused by land use in permanent protection  areas along river banks is the removal of the primary vegetation. Depending on the type and intensity of use, the soil structure of this river banks can be altered and the physical functions modified, especially near the watercourses. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the structural sustainability of three classes of river bank soil using the preconsolidation pressure measurement and thereby assess the impact of these different […]
