ABSTRACT
The last free site in this area was small and surrounded by two old masonry buildings and the new underground garage building, Figure 1. In geological point of view the location is built on the alluvial clayeysilty deposits in the Rjecˇina River mouth covered with an artificial low compacted embankment filled 450 years ago. Limestone bedrock is positioned from 35 to 55 m below the surface. The ground water level is relatively high, only 1 m below the existing terrain surface. The designed future building is relatively small but because of unfavourable geotechnical conditions and possible influence on the nearby buildings, demands complex foundation analysis and construction. Extra complication is insisting on one store underground garage below the ground water level and below the shallow foundation of the nearby masonry building.
