Abstract Stone columns have been used since the 1950's as a technique for improving both cohesive soils and silty sands. Potential applications include (1) stabilizing the foundation soils to support embankments, approach fills and reconstruction work on weak cohesive soils, (2) supporting retaining structures (including Reinforced Earth), bridge bent and abutment structures on slightly marginal soft to stiff clays and loose silty sands, (3) landslide stabilization and (4) reducing liquefaction potential of clean sands. Also, stone columns under proper conditions can greatly decrease the time required for primary consolidation. Volume I describes construction and design aspects of stone columns. This report presents six Appendixes (A-F) which describe various design examples and other pertinent information that supports the main text (Volume I) of the final report, I ', '. 5 a. \, /,I, < '_,'h' '., '~ " 17, Key Word*. 18.
