SUMMARY OF THE INTERDEPARTMENTAL CONFERENCE ON PROBLEMS OF ELECTROKINETIC SOLIDIFICATION OF MUDDY FOUNDATION BEDS OF MARINE HYDRAULIC ENGINEERING STRUCTURES

The conference, in which information was exchanged on current developments in the theory and practice of electokinetic solidification of weak soils, discussed plans for the development of an efficient method of electrokinetic solidification of weak margine soils. More than 20 papers were presented on various aspects of marine muddy sediments which included factors such as the constant electrical field on clay soil, physiomechanical and chemical properties, the use of autoclave water glass for soil solidification, electrosilicatization for the solidification of loess and quick sand below ground water level, increase of strength, and chemical solidifying additives.
