Desiccation Characteristics of Dredged Soft Clay by Ploughing Technique
교반기법에 의한 준설매립토의 증발촉진에 관한 연구
Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to present and discuss some of evaporation and desiccation observed in field experiments. Surface desiccation of dredged material is basically changed by evaporation characteristics which is controlled by weather and ploughing interval, etc. This study shows that ploughing interval is important factors in desiccation of dredged soft clay. A series of field experiments with variation of ploughing interval were carried out to get evaporation effiency and strength increase. In this study, it is proposed that ploughing technique on the total surface area expedites surface desiccation efficiency. Desiccation efficiency is improved when ploughing technique is applied on the surface area.
