湖南长沙、株洲、湘潭地区广泛分布着一种红色、褐红色陆相沉积的砂岩、砂质泥岩、泥质砂岩、泥岩,地质学上称为第三系、白垩系陆相沉积的“红层”。文章通过采用物理、化学等试验研究方法,对“红层”岩石的成份、结构、力学性质、化学性质、地质结构等进行了系统研究。 A series of sandstone, sandy mudstone, argillaceous sandstone and mudstone of terrestrial sediments of red and maroon are widely distributed in Changsha, Zhuzhou and Xiangtan of Hunan Province. The red beds of terrestrial sediments named Tertiary and Cretaceous in geology “. The article systematically studies the composition, structure, mechanical property, chemical property and geological structure of ”red layer" rock by using the experimental methods of physics and chemistry.
