Compaction Grouting:-Compaction

Shallow and deep foundations can be made liquefaction-resistant through various design techniques. Shallow foundations work best when all elements are tied together to allow for uniform settling. A stiff foundation mat can transfer loads from liquefied zones to stronger ground. Deep foundations like piles must be able to resist both vertical loads and horizontal loads from lateral movements if a weak soil layer liquefies. Soil improvement techniques like compaction grouting, compaction piles, and deep soil mixing can densify loose soils to reduce liquefaction impacts.

Shallow Foundation & Deep Foundation aspects

Build liquefaction-resistant structures:-It may be possible to make the structure liquefaction resistant by
designing the foundation elements to resist the effects of liquefaction .

Structure that possesses ductility, has the ability to accommodate large deformations, adjustable supports
for correction of differential settlements.

Shallow foundation aspects:-It is important that all foundation elements in a shallow foundation are tied
together to make the foundation move or settle uniformly, thus decreases the amount of shear force induced
in the structural elements resting upon the foundation.

A stiff foundation mat is a good type of shallow foundation. Which can transfer loads form locally
liquefied zone to adjacent stronger ground.

Deep foundation aspect:-


Liquefaction can cause large lateral loads on pile foundations. Piles driven through a weak, potentially Soil
layer to a stronger layer not only have to carry vertical loads form the superstructure, but must also be able
to resist horizontal loads and bending moments induced by lateral movements if the weak layer liquefies.
Piles of larger dimensions and/or more reinforcement can achieve sufficient resistance.

Compaction grouting:-Compaction
Grouting is a technique whereby a slow-flowing water/sand/cement mix is injected into loose sand under
high pressure. Gout does not enter soil but forms a bulb that compact and densify the soil by forcing it to
occupy less space.
