Some sections of the highway went through valleys where a soft clay layer of 6,8.5 m deep was encountered. A new explosive method was developed and adopted for this project. In this method, blasting is used to remove and replace soft clay with crushed stones. Explosive charges are placed in the soil to be improved according to a certain pattern. Crushed stones are piled up behind the area where charges are installed. The explosion removes most of the soil in the exploded area and causes the pile of crushed stones to slide into the area where the soil is removed by blasting. A formular was suggested to calculate the charge weight used for improving a certain type of soil. The effectiveness of the method is evaluated using borehole exploration, plate load tests,and ground-probing radar tests.展开更多
