Deep Compaction
Essentially required in order to reduce expected ground settlement and to protect underground utilities / structures etc.
- Deep compaction by 350 mm dia Vibroflot, 3 m centres in sand.
- Working on 12 hour basis, a vibroflot will achieve an output of 3-4,000 m3/shift (5,000 m3/day has been achieved in an extended shift).
