Fig. of sand-comparation method
Sand drain method (sand drain method)
One of the ways to improve landfills and soft ground. A method that aims to stabilize the ground as soon as possible by casting sand piles into the ground to create a path where water can pass, promote the drainage of water in the soil (promotion of tightness). In some cases, special paper, fiber, straw-shaped plastics, etc. may be used instead of sand.
