Analysis on the Control Effect of Enhanced Cushion on the Difference Settlement of New and Old Subgrade in Soft Foundation Area

Abstract

In order to reduce the differential settlement of the extended urban highway splicing segment, we monitored the junction of the new and old subgrade in the practical engineering, analyzed the value of pavement deformation. It found that the smaller the modulus ratio of the new and old subgrade, the greater the non-uniform settlement value. At the same time, the uneven settlement and lateral displacement of the road can be effectively reduced by using the pile-reinforced cushion structure. So the results show that the pile-reinforced cushion structure can effectively reduce the uneven settlement and lateral displacement of the old and new roads, strengthen the links between old and new roads; To enhance the stability of subgrade, it can be used for widening the old road in soft soil foundation.
