Purpose: Dynamic Replacement Method currently lacks of sufficient research, implementation cases, and case histories, compared with other comparable methods, such as Dynamic Compaction Method. Method: In this study, for Dynamic Replacement Method, the effective improvement depth and improved strength were analyzed for silty clayey soils. Results: Testbed test was performed to verify the effectiveness of Dynamic Replacement Method followed by the main dynamic replacement implementation on real construction site. Conclusion: A The effects of changes of soft ground depth, dynamic replacements' diameter, depth, spacing, and applied energy on dynamic replacement efficiency in silty clays were assessed and the followings were found: Empirical coefficient for soil $n_R$ of Dynamic Replacement Method was within the range of 0.14~0.32 and its ${\sqrt{WH}}$ is recommended to be 1.25~2.5 times of those from Dynamic Compaction Method.

The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of soft ground improvement by dynamic replacement with utilizing crushed rock. In order to understand the ground improvement effect when applying dynamic replacement method with crushed rock, the laboratory test and field test were performed. The internal friction angle and apparent cohesion were derived through direct shear test. The dynamic replacement characteristics were identified by analyzing the weight, drop, and number of blows needed for dynamic replacement. Through the field plate bearing test and density test, the bearing capacity and settlement of the improved ground were measured, and the numerical analysis were conducted to analyze the behavior of the improved ground. In this study, it proposes modified soil experimental coefficient(C_DR) to 0.3~0.5 in the dynamic replacement method with crushed rock. Also when applying the dynamic replacement method using crushed rock, the particle size range is less than 100 mm, D₉₀ is less than 80 mm and D₁₅ is more than 30 mm.
