Summary: Project: "Engineering-geological basis for the wider Split area" deals with detailed investigations of the coastal belt covering the area from Trogir to Omiš, with the islands of Šolta, Čiovo, Drvenik veli and Drvenik mali. The results of the research will be applied in the engineering practice and they will yield new data which will make it possible to complete the already existing data on the rocks of karst and flysch terrains. The field investigations will be carried out employing standard methods and special attention will be paid to the characteristics of rocks subjected to engineering works. The laboratory tests will be planned so that their results make it possible to define the influence of natural processes upon the rocks after cutting. The investigation results will be published gradually, and finally they will ba collected in a monograph with the developed proposal for making an inventory of engineering-geological phenomena in the area under study.

Keywords: Engineering-geological investigations, surrounding area of Split, karst, flysch, civil engineering structures, research metodology.

Research goals: The objective of this research includes the need for publication of an engineering geological map of 1:25000 scale, accompanied by key for the respective area, and followed by the survey map of all research activities performed when the objects have been prepared for building; with the respective land register suggesting different research method which depend upon the type of a building object. The suggested research has resulted in providing an engineering geological foundation of the respective area, as the basis for the further detailed engineering geological research on microlocation; in establishing a land register of research work which could be constantly completed according to the specific methodology; as well as; in proposing the methodology of research depending on type and complexity of the object. In the fifteen-year period (that lies ahead) we can expect the publishing of eight authentic scientific papers, fifteen professional papers, another two enlarged and revised editions of text-books - manuals and a monograph "The Engineering - geological foundation of the area surrounding Split".
