Foreword This code is tbe revision of *Code for Investigation of Geotechrical Enginecringa is sued in 1994 aceording to the requirerment of Jinn Bieo [1998] No. 224. In the course of revision, the chief editorial peny. Comprchensive Institute of Geotechnical Investi- gation &. Surveying, together with other investigation, design, scientific rescerch and tcaching units, formed sdevelopment group, to inquire widely for ments in tho whole nation. The group worked out sotme special reports on the key modification parts, by coordinsting the code with the corrent nationat standards and those being amended, After lots of discussion and iterative revislon, *Prelirnintary draft*, *Inquired Comments draf1" and *Final draft" were worked out successively end exemincd, the final version has been epproved aad Geveloped finally. This code msintains the scope of application, general frame snd main content of "Code for Investigation of Geotechnical Engineeringa issued in 1994 and odjusts pertinl- ly. It includes 14 chspters: Chapter 1 General Provisions, Chepter 2 Terminology and symbals; Chapter 3 Greding of investigation and classification of rock &. soil ; Chapter 4 Basic requirements of the investigation lor various engineering: Chapter 5 Adversc geo- ogical actions and geological disasters; Chapter S Special rock &. soil; Cbapter 7 Un- derground water, Chapter 8 Geological cngineering mnpping snd survey: Chapter 9 Ex- plorstion and sampling: Chapter 10 In-situ tests; Chspter 11 Lahoratory tests, Chapter 12 Appraisal of water anel soil corrosivity: Chapter 13 In-situ inspection and monito- ring: Chapter 14 Geotechnicsl Engincering Analysis and Assessnent snd Invesitigation Report. The main emendatory contents are as follows: 1. In the scope of spplication, the in- vestigation of nuclear power piaot is acded; 2. The chapter *terminolugy snd aymbols* is ndded; 3.
