Rigid inclusion (for ground improvement)
soletanche bachy
on all compressible soils. The process permits settlement
reduction within acceptable limits.
The inclusions are generally vertical and arranged in a
regular grid. They should display deformation and stiffness
characteristics appropriate for the surrounding
ground and the structures to be supported.
Different methods can be used (drilling with or without
displacement, driving, vibrating) and different types of
fill (ballast, gravel, soil-cement mixing and all types of mortar or concrete) are usable to allow the construction
of a superficial foundation system with minimal cost
when compared to a deep foundations system.
