Abstract

This paper studies the dynamic response characteristics of broken stone fills. Numerical simulation and in-situ test of the acceleration and settlement of a high fill under dynamic consolidation are carried out. The result shows that increasing compact energy and the compact numbers can improve the reinforcement effect. There is no significant relationship between the dynamic compaction number reaching the stable settlement and compact energy. When the compact energy is the same, compaction with a heavier hammer is better than compaction with a lighter hammer.
