Electricity stiffens clay fivefold for electric plant excavation
Material to be excavated for two generating units at Joppa, III, plant of Electric Energy Inc, was soft wet clay, but electro-osmosis increased clay's shear strength; electrodes are driven into slope and 90-v direct current is fed to them to drive water from anodes to cathodes and out of ground.
