An Innovative Foundation Technique for Residential Building—Case Studies
In recent years, rapid development of urban environment demands large number of residential units which are compounded with scarcity of suitable land. This compelled practicing engineers to find an innovative foundation technique to improve the unsuitable land which are technically feasible and economical. This paper presents case histories of similar conditions where ground improvement techniques using vibro stone columns was chosen to support residential buildings in weak soil strata. The foundation challenges such as bearing capacity, total and differential settlements, and mitigation of liquefaction were addressed. Various aspect of subsoil conditions, design aspects, construction methodology, and quality control measures are discussed.
