Abstract

Dredging and Reclamation which have been conducted steadily for creation of new coastal area have demerit that takes a long time. Hence, a lot of researches on acceleration of self-weight consolidation is proceeding continuously. In this paper, 30 cases of laboratory self-weight consolidation tests were conducted to understand application of PDF method, one of the self-weight consolidation acceleration methods, to domestic dredged soils. Acceleration effect of self-weight consolidation was confirmed through comparison and analysis on completion time and settlement of self-weight consolidation for none installed case and 4 kinds of common used PBD installed cases.
