The application of vacuum preloading for soft foundation treatment in grain storage is introduced from its principle, design, construction and the inspections. Its obvious effect is proved by example. The vacuum preloading method can effectively improve the soft soil foundation’s physical and mechanical performance and increase the bearing capacity of soft soil of coastal areas. For the grain storage, oil depot especially for large reserves of oil depot project, the treatment effect is remarkable. It can be widely used in the ground treatment in the soft soil area for grain storage, oil depot construction.

The application of vacuum preloading for soft foundation treatment in grain storage is introduced from its principle,design,construction and the inspections. Its obvious effect is proved by example. The east coast of China is the most developed economical area and major grain and oil manufacturers. Many grain and oil depots have been established. However, in the places where the depots located, soil is soft dirt with low strength grade, high compressibility, small permeability and high possibility of plastic flow, has increased difficulties of grain and oil depots foundation construction. Without enough knowledge of soft soil and lacking of proper foundation construction method and good technology, depots may slip due to foundation’s erosion, and big settlement. If the structure slips, equipments for aeration, dehumidifier, antivirus equipment cannot work well. Based on the statement above, reasonable and effective methods for soft soil foundation work is the key point for construction of high quality and high standard grain and oil depots. This paper mainly discussed when we do depots construction work on the soft soil foundation, exact calculation, construction method and result test of fasten method for the soft foundation under the vacuum circumstance of preloading.

The design method of electroosmosis-vacuum preloading for soft foundation treatment is not systematic and complete, thereby restricting the application of the technology in engineering. A design method for the electroosmosis-vacuum preloading treatment of sand-interlayered soft foundation is therefore presented. A compressible electrical prefabricated vertical drain is developed, and a vacuum sealing and draining system is designed for the application of the electroosmosis-vacuum preloading in sand-interlayered soft foundation. Calculation formulas of site resistance considering the interlayer and interface resistivity of the electrode are established to design the power supply and electrical circuit. A simple numerical simulation method is proposed to predict the ground settlement treated by electroosmosis-vacuum preloading. A field test of electroosmosis-vacuum preloading is designed using the suggested method, and comparison tests between the electroosmosis-vacuum preloading and the vacuum preloading are performed to verify the proposed technique. The test results show that the proposed design method is reasonable for the design of electroosmosis-vacuum preloading in engineering.

On the basis of engineering project using underwater vacuum preloading method to strengthening the soft foundation, under the specific geological conditionsthis article analyzes the construction technology and reinforcement mechanism of underwater vacuum preloading of the soft soil foundation. By indoor soil test of Reinforcement of soil before and after processing, compared the change and improve of soil shear strength indexes before and after the reinforcement, it is verified that the underwater vacuum preloading method is a effective mean in handing soft ground, and can be further promoted as a means of handling soft ground along the coastal area of China.

Foam lightweight soil is a new type of material appearing in recent years, whose advantages are paid more and more attention to by engineers and it will have broad application prospect in the engineering. An in-depth study application of foam lightweight soil in the complex of railway soft soil foundation treatment what based on a railway foundation project in Tianjin, this paper discusses the actual application state of foam lightweight soil in handling of special railway soft soil foundation. Through in-depth analysis of the advantages of a foam lightweight soil, optimization of construction replacement thickness and moisture density, discussion on construction of it, we can find large advantages of foam lightweight soil as replacement material in the complex railway soft soil foundation treatment, and provide new ideas about processing complex soft foundation.

There is the soft soil distribution mostly in the regions along the river or the sea in our country, so the soft foundation treatment shold be well done in building highways. With respect to the soft foundation treatment methods, the scholars, engineers and technicians home and abroad have put forward a dozen or more methods, such as replacement method, reinforcement method, top pressing method, sandstone pile method and deep mixing method etc.. This article discusses the reinforcement mechanism, construction technology and some proceedings requiring attention in the construction and detection of the cement agitation pile.

The marine cofferdams of the littoral new town in Lianyungang were constructed with geotextile bags filled with solidified soil and the soft ground under the cofferdams was treated by under water vacuum preloading method. The dimension of the cofferdams was reduced while the foundation kept stable. And the cofferdams were configurated with the geotextile bags filled with solidified soil, the silt clay was utilized adequately, the sand stone resource was saved and protected, the obvious effect was achieved. This method can be promoted in construction of marine cofferdams.

A lot of large area lands were made in China coastal areas by dredging sludge from the sea. The dredged fill ground had a very low bearing capacity which should be increased as soon as possible to meet the requirements of constructions. However, conventional vacuum preloading could not be used for this purpose because the sand cushion could not be laid on the sludge ground due to the very low bearing capacity. To solve this problem, a modified vacuum preloading method without sand cushion was proposed. This method has been successfully tested and applied in the reclamation project in Wenzhou. Based on this project, the technological process and the key technology were introduced and the reinforcement effect was analyzed. Project results showed the modified vacuum preloading method could achieve a good reinforcement effect on large area dredged fill ground in a short period. It is worth to promote the application of this method in coastal reclamation projects.
