Dynamic Compaction Soil

Подробнее о видео

Dynamic compaction is a ground improvement technique used to increase the density of soil by dropping a heavy weight from a significant height. This method is particularly effective in improving loose, granular, or weakly cohesive soils, making them more suitable for construction and infrastructure projects.

How Dynamic Compaction Works
1. Heavy Weight Drop – A large steel or concrete weight (typically 5 to 40 tons) is lifted by a crane and then dropped from a height of 10 to 30 meters.
2. Impact and Densification – The energy from the impact propagates through the soil, causing air and water to be expelled and particles to rearrange into a denser state.
3. Multiple Impacts – The process is repeated in a grid pattern over the site to ensure uniform compaction.
4. Rest Period – After initial compaction, the site is left to settle, allowing excess pore water pressure to dissipate.
5. Surface Finishing – The final stage involves regrading or rolling the surface to achieve a smooth and stable foundation.

Applications of Dynamic Compaction
- Land Reclamation – Improves loose fill material in reclaimed land.
- Construction Sites – Prepares weak soil for buildings, warehouses, and roads.
- Airport Runways & Highways – Enhances soil stability to support heavy loads.
- Industrial Zones – Strengthens soil for heavy machinery and structures.
