Study of the strength of soft clay reinforced with single encapsulated bottom ash columns

Stone column is one of the ground improvement techniques that are environmental friendly with effective cost and viable to reduce settlement of foundations on cohesive soft soil. Installation of stone column can increase the bearing capacity and the shear resistance of the soil mass. Bottom ash is...

description Stone column is one of the ground improvement techniques that are environmental friendly with effective cost and viable to reduce settlement of foundations on cohesive soft soil. Installation of stone column can increase the bearing capacity and the shear resistance of the soil mass. Bottom ash is the waste of coal burning generally is a coarse, granular in shape material that is used as stone columns and it is probably reducing usage of non-renewable material such as stone and sand. Besides that, by introducing bottom ash columns, sustainability can be achieved and the disposal problem for bottom ash can be solved. This paper discusses the results of the strength of soft clay reinforced with single encapsulated bottom ash columns.
