    Improvement of Loose Sand with Clayey Bands by Sand Columns

    This paper analyzes the application of a technique for improvement of loose sandy soils supporting heavily loaded structures using shallow foundation. The technique used was deep compaction through sand columns driven with Franki-type equipment, and shallow compaction by vibratory plate. Results of the compaction processes are presented and discussed to provide guidance for future projects. The discussion includes distance from the sand column, initial relative density, time delay for results verification after compaction, and depth. The analyses demonstrate the method efficiency.
