Abstract: This paper presents a case study of improving hydraulically dredged fine sand soils with deep dynamic compaction method. The pore water pressure and the settlement of the craters are monitored. The effect of the dynamic compaction are evaluated by laboratory testing on soil samples, dilatometer, cone penetration test and standard penetration testing as well as static plate loading tests.

Key words: Deep Dynamic Compaction, Soil Improvement, Hydraulically Dredged Fine Sands
