| During the past twenty years, a great
number of research projects regarding Deep Stabilization of Soft Soils have been carried
out in Sweden. The method has been continuously improved. However, the method of deep
stabilization still has a large development potential. Consequently, comprehensive
research programme has been designed and carried through in extensive co-operation
projects. A joint Swedish research programe was established in 1996 and will run to
2004 within the Swedish Deep Stabilization Research Centre. The centre co-ordinates all
projects and activities for the benefit of both industry and society. Both basic and
applied research is funded by the Programme.
Research activities
The research activities include issues related to planning, design, execution and
control. Theoretical and practical studies and also tests are made in a co-operation by
universities, research institutes, consultants and constructors.The research programme
includes all questions related to
- Properties of the stabilized soil
- Function of lime-cement columns stabilizations and mass stabilizations
- Installation and mixing techniqnes
- Quality control
