Initial settlement of mat foundation on group of cement columns in peat - numerical analysis

Cement columns are widely used to improve the load settlement characteristics of soft soils below shallow foundations. This paper investigates the performance of cement columns in soft peat. A series of laboratory tests were conducted on undisturbed peat for finding deformation properties. Finite el...
