Techniques to Improve the Strength of Ground
Journal Title: International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology (IJRASET) - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 4
Abstract
In modern years quick development of infrastructures in metro cities compounded with inadequacy of useful and bound the engineers to progress the properties of soil to bear the load transferred by the substructure such as buildings, bridges, roadways, railways etc. The engineering techniques of ground development are removal and replacement, pre-compression, vertical drains, in-situ densification, grouting, vibroflotation, dynamic compaction, stone column, compaction piles, stabilization using admixtures and reinforcement. The purpose of these techniques to an improve the bearing capacity of ground and reduce the settlement of the soil. The methods among ground improvement techniques is supporting the soil with materials like steel, stainless steel, aluminium,fibre glass, nylon, polyester, polyamides in the form of other floorings or grids and geotextiles. The Main purpose of reinforcing a soil mass is to improve its stability, increasing its bearing capacity and reduce Settlements and Lateral deformations. Geosynthetics include permeable and impermeable materials that are either of knitted, woven or nonwoven nature, The character of geosynthetic material varies in different application as it can serve as reinforcement, separation, filtration, protection, containment, fluid transmission and confinement of soil. Selection processes for ground improvement performs, improved analysis, and knowledge of long term performance and understanding of effects of variability are required to develop more efficient designs.
