State-of-art Techniques for Soil Improvement
The paper presents the state-of-the-art report on soil improvement techniques. Soil improvement (treatment) is the controlled alteration of the state, nature or mass behavior of ground materials in order to achieve an intended satisfactory response to existing or projected environmental and engineering actions. A wide range of treatments are available, techniques can be selected and combined to cope with different aspects of the poor ground, and there is increasing confidence both in what can be achieved by well-executed treatment and in its proper integration into the overall scheme for the construction. All these points are evidence of how valuable is this option.
