  Abstract:  The Methodology of Piedmontan Sediment Investigation. Case Study. The investigation of the accumulative piedmont formations requires ground and laboratory steps. The first step aims to identify the outcrops, capture images, raise the lithologic column, and sample geological and geomorphological mapping. Laboratory stage envisages particle size analysis, morphometric, morphoscopic, mineralogical, petrographic analysis, numerical analysis of the terrain. The piedmont accumulative Quaternary formations are located at the contact between the Şureanu mountain front and the Orăştie depression. These formations, genetically complex, are composed of glacises, alluvial cones, terraces, flood plains and stream channels.

Keywords: methodology, piedmont, glacis, sediment investigation, Şureanu, Orăştie, Luncani, Strei.
