Abstract:The present design of Deep Soil Mixing (DSM) columns in expansive soils is based on the heave prediction model originally proposed by Fredlund and Rahardjo (1993) and later revised by Rao et al. (1988). This model was evaluated as a part of the TxDOT Research Project 0-5179. The model for predicting the heave of the expansive subsoil was based on the variation of swell pressures with depth and is presented in the following equation.
