Conclusions
The primary purpose of this method is to improve the
settlement characteristics of the soft soil, increase load
bearing capacity, and shear strength
Estimation of settlement for the design of vibro stone
column proposed by Priebe is found to be more
conservative
A rational method of estimating settlement in a
homogenous soil is proposed based on the basic concept
of composite material and soil mechanics.
Result of this preliminary work is yet to validate
numerically and in the field.
Detailed research in future is necessary to check its
validity and applicability.
