Stone columns – Priebe settlement improvement
Settlement with and without stone columns on a triangular or rectangular grid, bulging capacity and consolidation time.
Calculation method
Priebe (1995): basic improvement factor n0, column compressibility, depth factor fd and compatibility limits, sublayers of 0.5 m; bulging by Hughes & Withers (1974); consolidation by Hansbo with Han & Ye (2001).
