- coastal land reclamation consists of two layers: highly permeable layer consisting of crushed rock fragments underneath a less permeable layer (sand)- land reclamation increases water level- deep foundations have a profound impact on underground water flow● building on reclaimed land demands ground improvement and

constant maintenance (drainages) – Source: Preliminary assessment of the impacts of deep foundations and land reclamation on groundwater flow in a coastal area in Hong Kong, China

ASCERTAINMENTS:● LESS CONTACT AREA WITH GROUND = LOWER COSTS FOR

CONSTRUCTION AND MAINTAINING● BUILDING ON RECLAIMED LAND DEMANDS AT LEAST 20 % MORE

INVESTMENT THAN BUILDING ON ORDINARY LAND
