Dynamic compaction was used as a method of compaction in the construction which consist of a land reclamation using dredged sand from the sea. The material is granular. During the trial testings the test seemed to be performing well in improving up to depth required ( which is 4.5m).
Though the...
Thank you very much for the great insight Ron, the problem that i'm tackling is that we have reclaimed the land in two layers, each with a thickness of 2.5m. the layer beneath the top 2.5m thick layer is not compacted and the top layer will be compacted in 0.25m thick layers. there is a concern...
is there any method to find the settlements occur on roads constructed on reclaimed land areas (i.e Ports) and the compaction depth required for a heavy vehicle road when preparing the subgrade of the road? most of the pavement design methods doesn't explain it deeply. please can anyone help me...
