RED means 15 m or more soft or LOOSE soils.

Not sure who can't read.  The map said "Red: Loose or soft soils > 15m thick. "
Yes, loose soil is totally different from soft soil, but isn't loose soil even worse??  LOL.

MSN04, it could be very possible that you know more than any of us in this topic (from the way you express yourself).  However, why wouldn't you want to share what you know with LYK.  Is that some kind of secret that you can't share in the public??

Learn to read first, before you start bashing me.

Loose soil is totally different from soil soft.  

How am I the person spreading wrong information when I know, and you don't?

Green: compact or stigg soils <15m thick and bedrock. Yellow: compact or stiff soils >15m thick; and loose or soft soils <15m thick. Red: Loose or soft soils > 15m thick. (Adapted from Ministry of Environment report, 1979).

Guess the person spreading wrong information is you?

Why are u surprised?  It is pretty well known.
Also, the ground below is not hard rock.  Where you get this info from?

This is what I find a bit stupid in this society.  People who does not have the background/knowledge always spread wrong information, such as Richmond is liquefaction paradise, Richmond has soft ground.  At one instance, I almost wanted to laugh when I heard some comment from a structural engineer regarding foundation.

Unless you are referring to the patches of farm area near the river on marine drive.

because phase 1 is expected to be completed in 1 or 2 years?  A lot of people still think that the market will go up, esp. when they made the purchase few months ago.  (Yes, some people were able to get into deals before it was open to public.)  These people are trying to sell before completion to make a profit.

But, I don't think we should comment on the settlements.  There are a lot of reason why the oval settles more than expected.  May be, the construction schedule did not allow enough surcharge duration.  May be, they underestimated the foundation load.  My point is, with good engineering, the long-term settlement can be minimized.  And very likely, the engineers working on River Green will look at the data obtained from Oval to further calibrate their settlement model.
