A system of vertical drains combined with vacuum preloading is an effective method to accelerate soil consolidation by promoting radial flow. This study presents the analytical modeling of vertical drains incorporating vacuum preloading in both axisymmetric and plane strain conditions. The effectiveness of the applied vacuum pressure along the drain length is considered. The exact solutions applied on the basis of the unit cell theory are supported by finite element analysis using ABAQUS software. Subsequently, the details of an appropriate matching procedure by transforming permeability and vacuum pressure between axisymmetric and equivalent plane strain conditions are described through analytical and numerical schemes. The effects of the magnitude and distribution of vacuum pressure on soft clay consolidation are examined through average excess pore pressure, consolidation settlement, and time analyses. Lastly, the practical implications of this study are discussed.Key words: consolidation, finite element method, soft clay, vacuum preloading, vertical drains.

At present, there are many methods of the dredger fill foundation treatment, in which the most widely used application of vacuum preloading method. The dredger fill for test was taken from the Tianjin Binhai new area center fishing port area, separately carried on the self-weight consolidation and vacuum preloading consolidation. Through the indoor test of soil test physical and chemical parameters, comparing the moisture content, soluble salt amount and component, caption exchange capacity, PH value and physical and chemical index. The results show that: the clay content of soil sample in the central fishing port area is higher, degree of aggregation is high, liquid limit is less than 60%, Ip is more than 10, belongs to the low liquid limit clay. Relative self-weight consolidation, soluble salt content of soil samples after vacuum preloading drainage treatment are low, but the particle size composition change less. It is said that parts of salt in the soil samples discharge with water discharge in vacuum preloading process, vacuum preloading effect is better.
