Land reclamation - from conventional vertical drain methods to a combined vacuum preloading and electro-osmosis with horizontal drainage enhanced geotextile sheets by Wong, Lung Anthony

“…The major challenges include the extra time required for consolidating the clay slurry and the formation of a working platform for construction, which are not necessary if sandy fill material is adopted. Consolidation analysis of drained reclamation work is a key aspect in assessing the performance of the ground improvement work conducted. …”
