Abstract
The paper presents a detailed review of the state-of-theart ground improvement technique namely sand compaction piles. The technique being originated in Japan has flourished around the globe for its efficient characteristics to act as a reinforcing member when it is installed in clays and is recognized as one of the best methods to prevent liquefaction. Known for its larger bandwidth of advantages, articles summarising the literature contribution on the technique are found to be very limited. Therefore, an attempt has been made to review the noteworthy literature that provides valuable information on the subject. An overview of the literature present on sand compaction piles installed in cohesive soils targeted to meet various demands like increasing bearing capacity, settlement, etc., and the technique’s efficiency in mitigating liquefaction associated problems are discussed.
Keywords
