Book excerpt: This accessible introduction to ground treatment describes the physical principles, methods, effectiveness and limitations of the various treatment techniques. It provides guidance on the selection of appropriate techniques, using case histories and referring, where possible, to comparative studies. Separate chapters look at techniques that achieve improvement by vibration, adding load, structural reinforcement, structural fill, admixtures, grouting, thermal stabilisation and vegetation. Among the techniques studied are vibro-compaction, vibro stone columns, compaction, pre-compression, vertical drains, soil nailing, micro-piles, lime columns, mix-in-place, grouting (permeation, hydrofracture, jet, compaction, squeeze and compensation), ground freezing and geotextile mats. General guidance is given on the matters that need to be considered when ground improvement is being contemplated as an option. Particular attention is given to the responsibility for design and the roles of those involved in the design process and in control of the treatment. The text is supported by comprehensive referencing and more than 120 line drawings and photographs. A guide to ground treatment is an important addition to CIRIA's extensive literature on ground improvement, which includes the related publication C572 Treated ground - engineering properties and performance (CIRIA, 2002).

Book excerpt: This report focuses on the properties of treated ground, where the objective of treatment has been the improvement of the load carrying characteristics of the ground. The only ground treatment methods included in this report are those that are used, or are suitable for use, in the UK. The report establishes the best assessments and measurements of engineering properties and performance of treated ground. It also explains how to carry out these assessments and measurements. It will be of direct use to geotechnical specialists and will also be of interest a wide range of people involved in building and civil engineering projects requiring ground treatment. Guidance is given on good practice in evaluating the effectiveness of treatment. Where ground treatment is used, a successful outcome depends not only on technical factors but also on the use of an appropriate contractual framework within which the treatment is procured and executed. The report should lead to better use of ground treatment techniques and help to improve foundation design and construction on treated ground. This report is published together with C573 A guide to ground treatment (CIRIA, 2002), which provides an accessible introduction to ground improvement.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When finding another location, redesigning a structure, or removing troublesome ground at a project site are not practical options, prevailing ground conditions must be addressed. Improving the ground—modifying its existing physical properties to enable effective, economic, and safe construction—to achieve appropriate engineering performance is an increasingly successful approach. This third edition of Ground Improvement provides a comprehensive overview of the major ground improvement techniques in use worldwide today. Written by recognized experts who bring a wealth of knowledge and experience to bear on their contributions, the chapters are fully updated with recent developments including advancements in equipment and methods since the last edition. The text provides an overview of the processes and the key geotechnical and design considerations as well as equipment needed for successful execution. The methods described are well illustrated with relevant case histories and include the following approaches: Densification using deep vibro techniques or dynamic compaction Consolidation employing deep fabricated drains and associated methods Injection techniques, such as permeation and jet grouting, soil fracture grouting, and compaction grouting New in-situ soil mixing processes, including trench-mixing TRD and panel-mixing CSM approaches The introductory chapter touches on the historical development, health and safety, greenhouse gas emissions, and two less common techniques: blasting and the only reversible process, ground freezing. This practical and established guide provides readers with a solid basis for understanding and further study of the most widely used processes for ground improvement. It is particularly relevant for civil and geotechnical engineers as well as contractors involved in piling and ground engineering of any kind. It would also be useful for advanced graduate and postgraduate civil engineering and geotechnical students.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vibro compaction and vibro stone columns are the two dynamic methods of soil improvement most commonly used worldwide. These methods have been developed over almost eighty years and are now of unrivalled importance as modern foundation measures. Vibro compaction works on granular soils by densification, and vibro stone columns are used to displace and reinforce fine-grained and cohesive soils by introducing inert material. This second edition includes also a chapter on vibro concrete columns constructed with almost identical depth vibrators. These small diameter concrete piles are increasingly used as ground improvement methods for moderately loaded large spread foundations, although the original soil characteristics are only marginally improved. This practical guide for professional geotechnical engineers and graduate students systematically covers the theoretical basis and design principles behind the methods, the equipment used during their execution, and state of the art procedures for quality assurance and data acquisition. All the chapters are updated in line with recent developments and improvements in the methods and equipment. Fresh case studies from around the world illustrate the wide range of possible applications. The book concludes with variations to methods, evaluates the economic and environmental benefits of the methods, and gives contractual guidance.

Book excerpt: The purpose of this manual is to provide clear and helpful information for maintaining gravel roads. Very little technical help is available to small agencies that are responsible for managing these roads. Gravel road maintenance has traditionally been "more of an art than a science" and very few formal standards exist. This manual contains guidelines to help answer the questions that arise concerning gravel road maintenance such as: What is enough surface crown? What is too much? What causes corrugation? The information is as nontechnical as possible without sacrificing clear guidelines and instructions on how to do the job right.
