In this book strategies for using very soft organic clay as a fill
material for road embankment constructions are compared, and an
optimisation scheme is presented. Computer programs for simulation
of evaporative drying, for simulation of consolidation, and for
slope stability calculation were used to analyse clay behaviour.
Field and laboratory testing programs for a trial embankment were
set up in order to study the relations of parameters, to examine
suitability and workability of the clay, and to verify the
improvement methods. An optimisation technique was applied as a
rational method for using very soft organic clay for road
embankments leading to an economic construction. Also
recommendations are presented based on a rational method for
conditioning and emplacing very soft organic clay in a safe and
economic way.
