VIBRO COMPACTION
Ground improvement techniques are geotechnical construction methodologies that modify and enhance the engineering properties of the soil mass by improving one or more of the following parameters: Increase in the soil density and shear strength, decrease of the compressibility, reduction of settlement (total and differential), increase in the soil bearing capacity, acceleration of the consolidation process, increasing the factor of safety against liquefaction in case of an earthquake and generally, restrengthening of the soils. There are a number of Ground Improvement Techniques available for different types of soils, different purposes and project requirements.
