dc.description.abstractThe effect of flood analysis on the foundation investigation of the proposed Gas-Fired Power Plant in Badagry, Lagos, Nigeria was carried out using geophysical, geotechnical and geographical information system (GIS) methods. The subsurface information was obtained by using two electrode arrays for the resistivity data acquisition. Geotechnical data were obtained through two boreholes via percursion drilling within the study area. The integration of geophysical and geotechnical data reveals that the subsoil materials comprises fibrous peat, organic silty clay, clayey sand, sandy clay and sand. The analysis of the subsoil conditions via geotechnical data shows the feasibility of foundation around 25 m via piling while the safe grade elevation has been worked out to be 6.672 m for 100yrs return period via GIS approach. Thus, in order to avoid adverse effect of flood on the proposed structure, the safe grade elevation value has to be added to the foundation floor.en_US
