The upheaved part of the cohesive ground due to compacted sand pilings was also improved by the same method and utilized as a part of the foundation soil of structures at the construction site of the Kansai International Airport Island.
The shape, strength, soil properties and settlement of the upheaved part were studied.
A method to predict the shape of the upheaved part was proposed and the measured shapes of the upheaval were compared with predicted ones.
The study results show that the upheaved part of the cohesive ground is strong enough to serve as a foundation for structures.
