Universal Foundation Company undertakes soil modification and improvement procedures to ensure optimal support for various structures. Granular soil with loose properties undergoes densification to enhance unit weight and shear strength. Replacement of undesirable top layers with suitable soil facilitates stable foundation construction. Compacted fills elevate ground levels in low-lying areas for robust foundation establishment. Addressing soft clay layers beneath foundations involves specialized techniques to mitigate settlement risks, tailored to structural loads and clay layer depths.

​

Various soil improvement technique

• Sand piling

• Compaction

• Vibro flotation

• Pre compression

• Sand drains

• Stabilization

• Stone column

​

The objective of this study

• Investigate the usability of sand for enhancing the bearing capacity of soft soil.

• Compare bearing capacities before and after compaction.

• Identify mechanisms behind the improved bearing capacity through the use of sand piles.
