Contrast test on soft ground improvement of high-speed rails
In order to explore the processing method of foundation stabilization. Large-scale field tests on a soft ground composed of a 2-5 m thick mucky soil were conducted in Jiangsu province
involving five ground improvement methods
on a soft ground composed of a 2-5 m thick mucky soil. These tests included packed-drain with explosion
plastic-drain with surcharge
cement-jet-pilling at different spacing
and sand mat. During 14 months’ in situ testing
the deformation behavior of the improved soft ground was investigated
and by comparing with the reinforcement scheme
the settlement after completion and economical efficiency of project are also studied. These results are expected to provide the reference value for the selecting of soft ground treatment methods and design parameters of high-speed rails.
