The ground in Saemangeum has a high water level and is mostly composed of silty soil sand, which makes it susceptible to liquefaction seepage effects. To investigate the seismic response geotextile tube-reinforced embankment shallow foundations laid on liquefiable soil, simple spring type shaking table apparatus was developed. variation acceleration shear stress-strain relationship were investi...

With the increasing use ofprefabricated vertical drains in the improvement of soft clay there are many types of these drains, both composite (with geotextile wrapping) and monolithic (without geotextile wrapping), available in Malaysia. Some engineers have the impression that all drains perform satisfactorily. However, case studies have shown that there are cases where vertical drains failed to...

Soft clay deposits cause many problems due to low bearing capacity and high deformation. This paper presents the results of laboratory model tests for studying improvement soft clay-bearing using two kinds soil columns, first is slag-cement dust columns second bentonite column. Three from SCC (slag-cement columns) encased by Woven Geotextile are installed beneath a steel plate representing foot...
