STABILIZATION OF SOFT SUBSOILS (REPORT 1)--COMPARISON OF STATIC AND DYNAMIC BEHAVIORS OF SOFT SUBSOILS TREATED IN DIFFERENT METHODS

A series of test embankments were built in order to find whichever stabilization method is most effective against the very compressible aluvial deposit along the line. This is the report concerning the first test embankment, in which sand-replacement method and preloading and berm construction method were compared with non-treated one. It was found that both the methods tested were remarkably effective in reduction of fill deformation under running trains, and the base failure in the deposit might be approximated to the mid-point circle failure.
