1. Finite Element Modeling of Installation Effects of Soil-Cement Columns
University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurserAbstract : Since the 1970's deep mixing columns have been widely used all over the world to improve the performance of soft soil in regard to bearing capacity or deformation behaviour. They are installed by mixing a binding agent, e.g. cement, in situ with the soil. READ MORE

2. Development of grout for deep shaft
University essay from KTH/Byggteknik och designAbstract : In tunnel engineering one of the most important factors are the groundwater flow. To solve this problem a method called grouting is commonly used. In this study grout mixes are developed based on specific requirements for a deep shaft located next to a body of water. READ MORE

3. Numerical modelling of lime-cementcolumns in the passive zone of excavations in soft clays
University essay from KTH/Jord- och bergmekanikAbstract : Excavations in soft clays come with a number of specific challenges. The use of lime-cement columns in the passive zone of such works represents a promising solution to some of these problems, such as basal heave stability or excessive deformations. READ MORE

4. Settlement calculation for lime/cement column improved clay : Analytical and numerical analyses related to a case study
University essay from KTH/Jord- och bergmekanikAbstract : The dry deep mixing method is widely used to improve a soft clay soil to increase the shear strength as well as to reduce the time for consolidation. It is a mechanical mixing process that makes parts of the soil stiffer than its original strength. It is mainly applicable to soft clay or peat soil. READ MORE
