Application of Deep Mixing Method for Mitigation of Potential Seismic and Hurricane-Induced Hazards
This paper describes the application of Deep Mixing Method (DMM) for the mitigation of potential hazards induced by natural disasters such as hurricane-induced ground flooding and seismic ground shaking for two projects in the USA. The two projects completed in 2014 and 2016 are used as case examples to present the design, construction, and quality control of the DMM work for hazard mitigation. DMM was installed in the first project called P-17A primarily to reinforce soft soils within and below a levee to provide resistance against lateral loads that will be induced from high flood generated by hurricane. The second project called Perris Dam included the use of DMM to improve potentially liquefiable soils within the foundation of an earthen dam primarily to limit the deformation of the dam during a seismic event.
