Rammed stone column. This installation technique was proposed by Datye and Nagaraju (1977) and was developed by Nayak (1982). In this technique, the granular fill is introduced into a pre-bored hole and compacted by a heavy rammer through the borehole. The hole is made by using normal bored piling rig with winch, bailer and casing.
2019-6-20 · To the untrained eye the stone columns left by vibro compaction can be mistaken for piles.
