Geosynthetic Design and Construction Guidelines

Densification and consolidation methods: deep dynamic compaction, vibro techniques, aggregate columns, prefabricated vertical drains and preloading. Each method gets its principle, design procedure, construction detail and quality control criteria.

The second volume moves to grouting, deep mixing, chemical stabilization, lightweight fills, geosynthetic reinforcement and soil nailing. Same structure as the first volume, with design examples for every technique.

Selecting and designing stabilization treatments with cement, lime, fly ash and bitumen, including the gradation and plasticity criteria that decide which additive suits a given soil, plus mix design procedures and construction requirements.
