Ground Improvement
Ground improvement refers to various techniques used to enhance the physical properties of soil, making it more suitable for construction and other uses. This process can increase soil strength, reduce settlement, and improve drainage, ensuring that structures built on the ground are stable and safe. Common methods include compaction, grouting, and soil stabilization.
These techniques are particularly important in areas with weak or unstable soil, such as clay or silt. By improving the ground, engineers can create a solid foundation for buildings, roads, and other infrastructure, ultimately leading to safer and more durable constructions.
