• Abstract:
  This manual was developed as a reference document for Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) Demonstration Project (DP) No. 116 - Ground Improvement Methods. The objective of DP 116 is to mainstream the use of ground improvement technology. The manual is comprised of nine stand alone Technical Summaries on specific ground improvement methods. The technical summaries reflect current practice in design, construction, contracting methods and quality procedures. The individual technical summaries are intended to serve as a primer on a particular subject; containing an executive summary of technical information which provides concise and specific guidance to users who desire further information. Technical summaries are not intended to present a comprehensive or complete thesis on the technology. Companion, comprehensive technical references for each technology are provided.
