Abstract

It is not correct to produce the necessary information for structuring, especially in environments such as Çanakkale, which exhibit a basin structure, without determining the bedrock or the strict ground conditions in bedrock. This approach is the basis of earthquake resistant building design. In this study, which was carried out to determine the bedrock/seismic foundation depth for the central settlement of Çanakkale and to define the basin structure to a certain extent, microgravity measurements were taken on a large scale, and the study area was modelled in three dimensions based on the obtained gravity data. By taking long-term microtremor measurements, one-dimensional depth-shear wave (Vs) velocity models were obtained using the Rayleigh ellipticity method. A depth map of the engineering bedrock was created, in which the velocity Vs reached to 2500 m/s.
