While the Grouting has been used to reinforce the foundation of structures in wide range of application, there need complementary measures against problems such as pollution, durability, influence on the adjacent structures. Compaction Grouting, the injection of a very stiff, 'zero-slump' mortar grout under relatively high pressure, displaces and compacts soils. It can effectively repair natural or man-made soil strength deficiencies in variety of soil formations. In this paper, on the basis of the case history constructed in this year, a study has been performed to analyze the basic mechanism of the Compaction Grouting, Also, the effectiveness of the ground improvement and the bearing capacity of the Compaction Pile has been verified by the S.P.T and core strength.

Bearing capacity of soil can be improved by several conventional ground improvement techniques like stabilization and compaction. In recent time, the use of reinforced soil has become popular due to the availability of durable strong geosynthetic materials. In this papers, through the laboratory model tests on sandy ground reinforced by mats about the strip footing under plane strain condition, the effects of bearing capacity improvement and behaviour of sandy ground were observed. And bearing capacities calculated by proposed method and measured by tests were compared.

Recently environment-friendly construction method is major trend in both domestic and world constrction fields. In this paper High Functional Performance Agent(Hi-FA) which has various improved engineering characteristics different with conventional Portland cement grouting, such as high viscosity, liquidity, void filling ability, early hardening, and separation resistance, was analyzed by field and laboratory test. Also soil improvement and existing deep foundation protection works were performed and analyzed using Hi-FA.

Switching to organic farming practices in agricultural production reaches the end of the period it takes an average of five years. During this period, agricultural soil management to improve the investment must be sustained. Results of the survey of environment-friendly agricultural lease rates appear to approximately 54.2% lower than agricultural practices. Environmentally friendly agricultural land is leased on a long transition period of the contract cost, many buried incompleteness, uncertainty of contract fulfillment(opportunistic behavior) occurs when the transaction costs. This ultimately can hinder the spread of organic farming. Thus, the qualitative development of organic farming and land leasing in order to minimize transaction costs, should that occur. The alternative 'cooperative long-term lease contract' is a system.

The use of compaction grouting system(C.G.S) evolved in the 1950's to correct structural settlement of buildings. Over the almost 50 years, the technology has developed and is currently used in wide range of applications. Compaction Grouting, the injection of a very stiff 'zero-slump' mortar grout under relatively high pressure, displaces and compacts soils. It can effectively repair natural or man-made soil strength deficiencies in variety of soil formations. Major uses of Compaction Grouting include densifying loose soils or fill voids caused by sinkholes, poorly compacted fills, broken utilities, improper dewatering, or soft ground tunneling excavation. Other application include preventing liquefaction, re-leveling settled structures, and using compaction grout bulbs as structural elements of minipiles or underpinning. So, on the basis of the case history constructed in recent year, a study has been performed to analyze the basic mechanism of the Compaction Grouting and verify the effectiveness of the ground improvement.

Land was reclaimed at the waterfront in the Pluit area of Jakarta for a 90ha residential-cum-recreational development. The reclamation works involve construction of permanent and temporary dykes, fill placement, soil improvement, dredging of internal canals and marina, and construction of canal revetment. The site lies on 16m to 18m thick soft seabed deposits. Settlement of the reclaimed areas will result as a consequence of consolidation of the soft underlying sediments. In order to reduce post-construction settlement to within acceptable levels, a system of vertical drains and preloading was adopted. This paper describes the use of Fibredrain, a prefabricated vertical drain made of jute and coir fibres developed at the National University of Singapore, in the soil improvement works and a secondary use in the construction of perimeter dykes for the reclamation works. The construction of the perimeter dyke must be carried out in such a way that slope stability is on ensured. Bamboo rafts and bamboo clusters with Fibredrain inserted, and stage construction were employed to improve stability during the dyke formation for the Pantai Mutiara project.

This study focused on the characteristics of manure in five beef cattle farms and two breeding farms in Hanwoo centered in Gyeongsangbuk-do province. The results of analysis and evaluation are as follows; First, the pH of manure in all the farms in this study was within the appropriate range of 8.81 to 9.45. Second, the dry matter content varied from 44.7% to 70.5% for all the farms. Third, the total nitrogen content in all the farms was 2.05-3.04%, which is higher than the reported range; however, it could play a role as a soil improvement agent when used as compost. Fourth, although the exact range of ammonia-N (VBN) content was not reported, results analyzed in all the farms showed that the level of impact on the environment was insignificant. In conclusion, soil and environment improvement effects are expected to be effective if the manure at Hanwoo farms in the Gyeongbuk area are used as compost through appropriate management.

A study was performed to examine the soil environment, vegetation type to the inside slope of sea dike. The soil pH was about 8.5, electric conductivity was $4.59dSm^{-1}$, soil strength was 12.1mm, organic matter was 0.21%. The vascular plants of the inside slope of sea dike were consisted of 101 taxa such as 26 families, 80 genera, 93 species, 8 varieties, 1 hybrid. The life cycle of the plants was annual 38.6%, biennial 14.8%, perennial 46.5%. As it compared with consistency ratio in the flora of korea, the distribution of annual, biennial appeared highly. From this examine, it appears that the environment need soil improvement using water holding materials and organic supplements.

This study is to examine slope activity safety ratio on the strength of the natural sample or soil collected through field test in the slope activity region during destruction happened in the course of soil-relocating work planned for ground improvement under strict supervision at the house-building site, using Bishop's slope analysis method and investigate relationship between slope analysis theories and actual destruction so as to compare determining method of clean water of soil essential for slope activity analysis and accuracy of resulting value of clean water of soil.

Observational date is integral in our understanding of present climate, its natural variability and any cnange roue to anturopogenic effects. This study incorporates a brief overview of sampling requirements using data from the first ISLSCP Field Experiment (FIFE) in 1987, which was a multi-disciplinary field experiment over a 15km grid in Konza Prairie, USA. Sampling strategies were designed for precipitation and soil moisture measurements and also detecting land cover type. It was concludes that up to 8 raingages would be needed for valuable precipitation measurements covering the whole FIFE catchment, but only one soil moisture station. Results show that as new gages or station are added to the catchment then the sampling error is reduced, but the Improvement in error performance is less as the number of gages or stations increases. Sampling from remoteiy sensed instruments shows different results. It can be seen that the sampling error at 1arger resolution sizes are small due to competing error contribution from both commission and omission error.
