Slurry Wall is a ground improvement technique that uses non-structural underground barriers to build cut-off walls to prevent the flow of water.
Vertical Drains
Menard Canada2024-07-17T16:00:37+02:00Vertical drains, also known as prefabricated vertical drains or wick drains, are made up of a plastic core surrounded by a geotextile that acts as a filter to prevent clogging.
Menard Vacuum™
Menard Canada2024-07-17T16:02:59+02:00Menard Vacuum™ is used to accelerate consolidation of cohesive, highly compressible soils. The process consists in creating a negative pressure under an airtight membrane laid over the soil, which generates atmospheric pressure on the soil, equivalent to the pressure exerted by a 4 metre embankment.
Vibro Stone Columns
Menard Canada2024-07-17T15:03:40+02:00Vibro Stone Columns is a ground improvement technique that reinforces the soil with a network of stone compacted columns.
Bi-Modulus Columns
Menard Canada2024-07-17T15:07:41+02:00Bi-modulus columns is a ground improvement technique that reinforces the soil by a combination of CMC and stone columns.
Soil Mixing
Menard Canada2024-07-17T15:14:13+02:00Soil Mixing is a ground improvement technique that reinforces the soil by mixing in situ a network of grout and soil columns.
Dynamic Compaction
Menard Canada2024-07-17T15:34:54+02:00Dynamic compaction is a ground improvement technique that densifies the soil by repeatly pounding it with a high energy pounder.
Dynamic Replacement
Menard Canada2024-07-17T15:23:20+02:00Dynamic replacement is a ground improvement technique that reinforces fine grained soils with a network of dynamically pounded pillars.
Rapid Impact Compaction (RIC)
Menard Canada2024-07-17T15:38:26+02:00Rapid Impact Compaction is a ground improvement technique that densifies the soil by pounding it at high frequency with a medium sized pounder.
Vibro Compaction
Menard Canada2024-07-17T15:54:38+02:00Vibro Compaction is a ground improvement technique that densifies the soil by shaking it with a vibro probe.
