In-situ Soil Mixing
Overview
Converting soft soils to high strength material and immobilisation of contaminants
This is a ground improvement technique used to increase strength, decrease settlement and reduce permeability of soft soils. Compared with other ground improvement techniques, a key benefit of soil mixing is that the improvement takes place within hours / days rather than weeks / months. The RGE equipment is among the most modern in Australia, including automated batch plant, real time GPS control and data logging of the mixing operation.
