  • Abstract
    Consolidation time in the centrifugal model tests is 1/n2 of the prototype, thus secular settlement of deep soft clay ground can be simulated within a short time. In the paper, authors use the centrifugal model tests to research the improvement mechanism of D-M method. The tests results show that D-M method is feasible to improve deep soft clay ground. The short piles enhance the stability of foundation and the long plastic plank is contributive to decrease the post settlement of ground.
