The goal of this course is to provide knowledge and understanding of<br />

techniques of soil improvement in geotechnical engineering. Among the topics<br />

to be discussed is the reasons and the need for improvement of land;<br />

mechanical techniques such as compaction (including compaction<br />

theory, the concept of compaction, laboratory testing and in situ, compaction<br />

equipment, etc..), dynamic compaction, vibratory compaction, vibrofloatation<br />

replacement, and compaction by explosion; hydraulic techniques such<br />

as pumping, precompression with sand/vertical vertical, vacuum<br />

consolidation, and electroosmosis; physical-chemical techniques such as<br />

chemical stabilization and heat treatment; and inclusion techniques inputs<br />

such as soil reinforcement and geosynthetics.<br />
