Whats the hell is bedrock?
i dont mean the Flintstones, what does it do. I know its some sort of rock, can it cause SERIOUS damage? okies, toodles.
Answers:
Bedrock is the native consolidated rock underlying the Earth's surface. Above the bedrock is usually an area of broken and weathered unconsolidated rock in the basal subsoil. The term implies that the rock lies in beds, or strata. Under any given location on the surface of the planet, rock will be found.
The term bedrock may be somewhat misleading, since in many locations, the bedrock may change over a short distance, or the technical bedrock may be a thin stratum overlying quite different rock.
A geologic map of an area will usually show bands of differing rock type exposure, i.e., rock that would be exposed at the surface if all soil were removed. The different rock strata or layers that are indicated may be a result of either nonparallel (sloping) surface erosion at the edges of flat strata or normal surface erosion of tilted strata that has removed the upper portions of higher layers.
The layer of rock the land sets upon is bedrock could be granite could be lime stone could be pumic that don't look right hardened lava.Wow go with what the one above me said.
it's a really tough stone, so tough that you need to blow through it with explosives if you want to do any sort of construction where it exists. If the earth shifts for whatever reason the rock will shift. Something like that could crack your basement or foundation or make your septic tank collapse. Not a good thing at all.
Bedrock is the layer of rock underneath the soil
After you dig through all the soil and sometimes gravel, mud, clay and other lose material, you'll come to solid rock. That rock is called bedrock. Bedrock is a general term that can denote, mineral rocks such as granite, sandstone, shale, basalt etc. etc. It's all bedrock if it is solid rock. It is usually not harmfull unless it is radioactive and producing radon gas. (some grsnites do that), or it is on a geological fault line that is subject to earthquakes. (both of the latter two situtions are not too common.

only if u hit urself w/ it.
Basically, the earth's crust.
'Bedrock' is what it says on the tin.
It's the natural bottom layer - below the crust of earth on Earth.
