  • It is important to obtain detailed physical and mechanical properties of the soil for effective and economical plans and constructions of the structures located on deep seabed soft clay layer. This study is to find out the engineering properties of the seabed soft clay such as water content, initial void ratio, liquid and plastic limits, the compression index, etc., to make correlations between soil parameters, and to compare and analyze the findings with that from the previous researchers. Finally a representative correlation among the soil parameters was determined.
