Abstract

Preloading is a well-known and classic way for soil treatment in engineering practice. For south part of Iran, this method is an economic and also effective way for soil treatment. In this method, the preloading is done using vertical drains to accelerate the consolidation and also a surcharge that is embankment. The preloading induces the required settlement to weak and compressible layers and hence the settlement would be reduced considerably after the compilation of the main structure and also the risk of differential settlement in the future would be decreased considerably. In this article the Mahshahr clarifying unit has been modeled and then the results were compared with instrumentation on site.
