Why reinforce the soil with Geopier?
The compacted gravel piles reinforce the soil through four main mechanisms:
a) Soil matrix densification.
b) Increasing lateral stresses in the matrix soil,
c) Drainage and pore pressure dissipation
d) The increase in the shear strength of the soil during a seismic event; which allows an increase of up to 30 times the carrying capacity of the soil and a reduction of up to 99% in the settlements.
