Gain a stronger foundation with optimal ground improvement Before you break ground on a
new structure, you need to analyze the structure of the ground. Expert analysis and …

This paper aims to establish an analytical model on vacuum consolidation of dredged slurry
treated by PVD with special considerations on the clogging effects. A series of laboratory …

The" Red Book" presents a background to conventional foundation analysis and design. The
text is not intended to replace the much more comprehensive'standard'textbooks, but rather …

An improved vacuum preloading method was developed to consolidate clay-slurry fill that is
hydraulically placed in seawater for land reclamation. This method adopted both a vacuum …

This paper presented a new approach for ground improvement of deep marine clay in which
the conventional booster tube in the current air booster vacuum preloading technology was …

High-speed railways are very important in global transportation. However, the railway
subgrade is significantly affected by the environment due to its exposure to the atmosphere …

Numerous land reclamation projects that utilise dredged fill are currently being executed in
the eastern regions of China to cater to the demands of economic development and address …

This manuscript presents the case study of soft Bangkok clay improvement and simulations
using combined vacuum pressures with pre-existing surcharge embankment preloading …

Clogging effect surrounding prefabricated vertical drains (PVDs) is a typical problem when
vacuum preloading is applied to a dredged fill foundation. A large-scale model test was …

The prefabricated horizontal drain (PHD) clogging problem often results in poor drainage
and consolidation effects. To solve this problem, this paper adopts air booster vacuum …
