Numerical Modelling of the Consolidation Behavior of Peat Soil Improved by Sand Columns

This paper presents a ground improvement method using sand as material in columnar inclusion. The main focus of the study is to model the consolidation behavior of peat soil reinforced by sand columns. The effects of sand column length and column diameter were determined using numerical analysis. It...
