Vibro Compaction
Vibro compaction is used to densify loose sands and gravels. Deep vibration treatment results in an improvement of the geotechnical characteristics of the soil, which is im-portant in foundation engineering.
The benefits of vibro compaction include:
Achieving in-situ density, thus avoiding excavation and replacement
Angle of internal friction
Elastic modulus
Mitigation of liquefaction and lateral spreading
Cost and time savings over conventional system
Can be applied near existing structures
By improving soil parameters, it is possible to considerably increase bearing capacity and to reduce settlement under structural loads.
