Soil Improvement

Soil ImprovementSoil improvement is a pack of solutions to help the soil to tolerate the applied loads and conditions in a safe and determined manner. Solutions like compaction and RIC and stone columns, soil replacement, drainage, grouting, soil mixing and so on, are mainly used in this regard.

Technologies

Rapid Impact Compaction

Rapid Impact Compaction

Rapid Impact Compaction (RIC) is an ideal method for increasing soil compaction and bearing capacity and reducing the settlement and the risk of liquefaction in loose Sands. This method is fast and economical and is environmental friendly.

Caissons

Caissons

Caissons are huge semi deep concrete foundation which provide enough balance and stability for its superstructure and usually is embedded on a previously improved ground. It is also applicable to use replaced granular soil to act as in minor concentrated loose sands.

Soil Anchorage

Soil Anchorage

Soil anchorage is an active method for stabilizing inclined lands and excavations. In this method soil wall is drilled up to 20 cm and to enough depth, then preassemble steel reinforcement is placed in the drilled hole and the cement bass grout is injected in the hole. Then it is activated by prestressing hydraulic jacks to stabilize the excavation and incline lands.
