The dynamic compaction method is effective to reinforce soft soil foundation with a low degree of saturation. However, deep soft soil foundation with high degree of saturation has some different characteristics. It has been widely considered that dynamic compaction method is unsuitable to improve the characters of deep soft soil foundation with high degree of saturation. In this article, we will show that the dynamic compaction method with vacuum well-point dewatering is effective to deep soft soil foundation with high degree of saturation reinforcement. In situ and laboratorial experiments are used to assess the reinforcement effect of the deep soft soil foundation with high degree of saturation. Our results show that the dynamic compaction method causes long dissipation time of pore water pressure, and the dynamic compaction method with vacuum well-point dewatering makes construction time of a project 25% shorter. The effective depth of deep soft soil foundation with high degree of saturation reinforcement using the two experimental methods can reach to 8.0 m. In comparison with the total settlement and layered settlement of the dynamic compaction method with vacuum well-point dewatering, the dynamic compaction method settlement is relatively smaller. For soils with depth of 4 m, the reinforcement effect of dynamic compaction method with vacuum well-point dewatering is obviously superior to dynamic compaction method. Based on these results, we suggest construction procedures for different reinforcement depth of soils and construction time.

This paper studies the applicability of vibro-replacement stone pile in combination of a port project in Dalian as well as heavy dynamic sounding and standard penetration test, studies the reinforcement effect of pile distance and feeding type on vibro-replacement stone and analyzes reinforcement effects of the side pile and the earth among piles. The results show: smaller pile distance will bring better pile compactness; for the vibro-replacement stone pile constructed in soft earth with undrained strength less than 20kPa with the conventional method, it is not easy to form compact pile; the reinforcement effect works only within 0.6m on the top; vibro-replacement stone pile with bottom feeding mode can form compact piles, but the pile has the interlayer which is not compact enough partially; the strength of the earth among piles fails to improve obviously before and after the stone pile is formed.

Using DPT and plate loading test, the paper analyzed different reinforcement effects from four different reinforcement technologies－gravel piles method, dynamic compaction method, dynamic compaction replacement (DCR) method and impact compacted method for Cha-Ge highway saline soils ground located in salt lake area, and got the following conclusions: (1) DCR method has the best reinforcement effect, and impact compacted method has the worst. There is a difference of 166.9 % between them. (2)Tamping energy is important on reinforcement effect to the last three methods and related directly to the values of the strengthened bearing capacity and deformation modulus. The DCR method and gravel piles method mentioned above are useful on reducing the settlement of natural saline soils foundation. In recent years, a lot of ground treatment methods are widely used to consolidate soft soil foundation for its short period and simple construction and so on. Numerous scientists and engineers have obtained useful results and experience from DCR and gravel piles foundation treatment of soft soil [1,2,3,4]. (e.g., A. G. Phear, S. J. Harris, 2008; Dong,Yan and , 2009; Huang, Zhou and He, 2006; Liu, 2006;); But the reinforcement in regions of saline soils, such as DCR hasn't been well researched; theoretical study is far behind engineering practice; so it is hard to build up the design theory and method..

Effective Reinforcement

Filling replacement combined with dynamic compaction is a very effective method to preprocess the soft soil to obtain larger bearing capacity. That not only has remarkable effect to improve soil bearing capacity, but also has some advantages, such as quick construction, simple equipment, low cost and so on. And that is appropriate for large area ground treatment engineering. The purpose of ensuring the reinforcement effect and saving the project cost, and providing references for the similar projects can be achieved through the test study on effective reinforcement depth of dynamic compaction and filling replacement.

Recently, an innovative soft soil improvement method was advanced in China by integrating and modifying vacuum consolidation and dynamic compaction ground improvement techniques in an intelligent and controlled manner. This innovative soft soil improvement method is referred to as “High Vacuum Densification Method (HVDM)” to reflect its combined use of vacuum de-watering and dynamic compaction techniques in cycles. Over the past ten years, this innovative soft soil improvement technique has been successfully used in China and Asia for numerous large-scale soft soil improvement projects, from which enormous time and cost savings have been achieved. In this presentation, the working principles of the HVDM will be described. A discussion of the range of fine-grained, cohesive soil properties that would make them ideal for applying HVDM as an efficient ground improvement method will be discussed. The economic benefits and environmental benefits of HVDM are elucidated.

Plastics drain board method is one of the most effective ways of reducing excess pore water pressure during the process of dynamic compaction in soft soil subgrade reinforcement. Based on field test in neritic backfilled area of Jinzhou Port 207B berth, the pore water pressure, groundwater level, subgrade bearing capacity and time effect of deformation have been measured and analyzed. The application of dynamic compaction-PDB method makes a mighty advance of the dynamic compaction method, which provides a new way for soft soil treatment in coastal areas.
