Trends in Ground Improvement Techniques
Journal Title: GRD Journal for Engineering - Year 2016, Vol 1, Issue 0
Abstract
Improvement of soft ground deposit s near the coastal areas, delta and black cotton soil areas of the country has been the challenge for infrastructural development. Rapid urban and industrial growth demands more land for further development. In order to meet this demand reclamation and utilization of unsuitable and environmentally affected lands have been taken up. These useless lands for construction have been converted to useful ones by adopting one or more ground improvement techniques. A wide range of techniques have been employed for the load settlement response of weak soil deposits. The field of ground improvement technique is rapidly expanding. It requires lots of investigation and monitoring some of the field problems related to compaction characteristics and feasibility of construction material.
