Abstract
Among soft ground treatment methods with granular soil used in domestic, the sand compaction pile method has been utilized greatly, but, as a result of exhaustion of sand and increase of unit cost, the necessity of an alternative method is suggested. In this study, the static load tests for crushed-stone compaction piles which were constructed on test field were performed. Based on test results, stress concentration ratios between the crushed-stone compaction pile and the soft ground were investigated and estimated. At loading pressure, settlement showed decreasing tendency as replacement rate increases. At replacement rate of 20%, yield pressure was smaller but, at replacement rates of 30% and 40%, settlement and yield pressure were similar. The stress concentration ratio was within the range of 1.7 to 3.0 and it was higher as replacement rate increased.
