Dynamic compaction is a ground improvement method that utilises repeated high‐energy impacts to densify and stabilise loose granular soils. This technique has evolved from traditional field methods ...

Researchers are using T-Rex, a 64,000-pound shaker truck, in research to increase the resilience of homes and low-rise structures built on top of soils prone to liquefaction during strong earthquakes.

Autumn brings lovely cooler air and falling leaves. But the fall can have implications for your garden, lawn, and crops. Heavier rains reshape the ground beneath them. As fields and lawns absorb ...

Managing wet spring soils isn’t just about avoiding ruts—it’s about protecting the biological and physical foundation of crop production and yields. Each spring, farmers look at calendars that say ...

Soils damaged by livestock and machinery significantly reduce the uptake of essential nutrients – they will run off the surface instead of being taken down to the roots. And the worm populations that ...

For a successful outcome, each phase of the work – soil stabilisation, compaction, grading, material delivery, paving – must proceed with maximum efficiency and always within challenging time ...

Using old ideas for new methods of compaction|~|Landpac body.jpg|~||~|Old ideas often hold the answer to many of the technical problems that we face. Construction is no different as commercial ...

Pavement performance depends on many factors. Mix designs, ambient and mix temperatures, rolling methods, joints, and types of equipment used can all be analyzed and tweaked to deliver a better ...

This year in South Dakota many areas have received high amounts of rainfall during the summer. This has led to portions of fields being wet particularly in the northeastern part of the state. Soils ...

The soil compaction equipment market is expected to surpass USD 4 billion by 2028, as reported in a research study by Global Market Insights Inc. The upward trend of mechanization in the construction ...
